I am +1 on deprecating string exceptions for Python 3. Now, since this will end up forcing instances to be created for each raised exception, can we now consider implementing chained exceptions as has been mentioned here numerous times? Since we are going to end up breaking a good amount of code with this (if it happens) we might as well go all-out and get in the features we want. -Brett
