Hmm... then what _does_ qualify as exceptional in your opinion?

A logic error (i.e. a mistake on the programmers side) doesn't, 
IMO, it should abort instead. On the other hand, there is the 
class of situations where e.g. a system call returns an error 
(say, "permission denied" when opening a file, or out of disk 
space). Or more generally, an external service, like a database 
or a remote server. However, I can't see how these are 
fundamentally different from invalid user input, and indeed, 
there's often not even a clear separation, e.g. when a user asked 
you to read a file they don't have access to.

So, what's left then?
