I figured it out....in GWT, you HAVE to put throws XXXException on the
interface method even if the exception is just a RuntimeException.
Why is this? This should not be the case!!! The GWT code should
allow all RuntimeExceptions to be passed through...I was throwing a
RuntimeException(very specific case as I usually reserve runtime for
bugs, but this one is needed to apply to all methods without having to
add throws XXXException to all services developed in the future).
