Right, that was my point. I can't think of any good reason to use
exceptions rather than global errors (E_NOTICE or E_STRICT or
similar), but some people seem to want exceptions.

I was asking them if they had use valid cases (e.g. *not* data
validation or similar which is undoubtably foolish) that would merit
using exceptions rather than the global error handling.
