[issue15034] Document best practices for exceptions

[Vedran Čačić]

Vedran Čačić  added the comment:

Terry: of course, if a method is not overridden, there's no need to call 
super()'s method, since the only thing it would do is call the same thing that 
would be called without overriding.

But of course, if Exception's __init__ does anything, then super() should be 
called from the overrridden method.
