While I generally like the concept of exceptions, those are quite tricky 
with c++.

As Lars pointed out, dynamic libs and exceptions don't really mix well on 
some platforms (for example, mixing msvc and gcc compiled exception-
enabled code will result in a unique kind of hell :) )

I'm not aware of non-windows os problems, but even if so, a large portion 
of Qt users are on that platform.
