I just realized that keeping RuntimeError still does not resolve the issue that the name kind of sucks for realizing intrinsically that it is for quick-and-dirty exceptions (or am I the only one who thinks this?). Should we toss in a subclass called SimpleError?
Much Python code I've looked at uses ValueError for this purpose. Would adding a special exception add much utility?
