I'm very tempted to close this as "won't fix." Here's a semi-recent discussion
on this issue:

http://forum.dlang.org/post/dslphmvguipxocdljjsl@forum.dlang.org

and this is probably my best post in there about why general exception types
like this are a bad idea:

Andrei did not weigh in on the topic, but Walter was in clear agreement with me
that this sort of approach is a bad idea.
