Sorry, you wrote _re_throw. I should learn to read sometime.. Anyway I admit that rethrowing a runtime exception at three different locations in the API is not very beautiful and error prone in case of future changes. But I really hate those "this-cannot-happen" catch blocks and would be glad if we could find a solution for this.
