Bug description:  ReflectionException 

Description:
------------
I�m trying to use Reflection API. I works great, but I�ve some remarks
regarding ReflectionException. Calling ReflectionParameter::getClass()
will raise an exception when class definition isn�t already included.
That�s fine, it�s an expected behavior. The problem is that I have no way
to get the missing class name. Ok, I could parse message string, but this
way it becomes (unintentionally) part of  the public API. What do You
think about having sth like

Class ReflectionExceptionClassNotDefined extends ReflectionException
{
        public string getClassName();

}


Reproduce code:
---------------
class A
{
    public function __construct(B $b)
    {
       $this->b = $b;
    }
}

$rc = new ReflectionClass('A');
$rconstr = $rc->getConstructor();
$rparams = $rconstr->getParameters();

try
{
   $paramclass = $rparams[0]->getClass();
}
catch (ReflectionException $e)
{
   //no way to get 'B' name here, without parsing msg string
}
