I don't know that this will be the best answer to your question, Lee,
but it may be of some use. I remember reading a little quote
somewhere that basically said "Never test for an error that you don't
know how to handle." My thinking is that you should only be setting
up exceptions when you already have a specific plan on how you want to
respond to them.
Please feel free to ignore my answer if someone else posts something
more useful to you.
