FWIW, there are good reasons to ask when memcache fails - I mean a real failure (say, timeout exception) rather than mere lack of data.
For example, if you are put()ing a new value in memcache and you want to make sure the old value is replaced, you really want to be able to retry if the put() fails. In Javaland there is an error handler you can set on MemcacheService - the default is to log and ignore errors but you can set a strict error handler that propagates exceptions. Dunno what the equivalent for Python is.
