New submission from Joshua Chin: The documentation for urlopen states that it "Raises URLError on errors." However, urlopen can raise a ValueError. In fact, test_urllib. urlopen_FileTests.test_relativelocalfile specifically checks if urlopen raises a ValueError. I suggest removing the guarantee from the documentation.
