New submission from jon orebro:

The documentation for urllib.request should mention that a robust client using 
urllib.request must be prepared for exceptions of type 
http.client.HTTPException in addition to urllib.error.URLError.

Example: the server breaks HTTP and returns an empty status line and we get a 
http.client.BadStatusLine.
