Re: [fw-mvc] Error handling

Typically when you catch exceptions, you can check on the class type.
You usually don't check on the message. So empty classes, provide the
possibility for different messages for the same type of exception,
while retaining the option to check for the type of exception.

try {
// Code
} catch (My_Db_Exception $e) {
// Bla bla
} catch (My_File_Exception $e) {
// Bla bla something else
} catch (Exception $e) {
// Default bla bla
}

If you have something specific you want to check on, make it into a
separate class.
