I'd prefer to use the exception classes [1] of SPL [2] as a base. Since PHP
5 SPL is a default exension so we can expect these classes to exist on
nearly every installation.

Surely there's a demand for additional / special exception classes for TYPO3
but IMO these should be founded on a well-known and widely used base.
