Thanks for the recent increase in activity and for the new release!

Sadly, it looks like the "raises-exception" feature kept the
inconsistency between its name and its behavior, right?
It would have been nice to consider my issue at
https://github.com/jupyter/nbconvert/issues/730.

Also, the new system for configurable kernels broke my "nbsphinx"
module, see https://github.com/spatialaudio/nbsphinx/issues/202.
The error is already reported in
https://github.com/jupyter/nbconvert/issues/878.
I have for now disabled version 5.4 and will try to make a release
later this day in order not to cause too much disruption due to the
new nbconvert release.

cheers,
Matthias
