I second this too, it would be much better than the present state.
But regarding the discussion about runtime errors, pl4ease read this short 
article about Java's RunTimeException (a more or less official statement in the 
docs of Java):
<https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/essential/exceptions/runtime.html>

I quote from there:
