(e.g. ``HTTPNotFound``) are no longer just import aliases for classes that
actually live in ``webob.exc``. Instead, we've defined our own exception
classes within the module that mirror and emulate the ``webob.exc``
- exception response objects almost entirely. We do this in order to a)
- allow the exception responses to subclass ``pyramid.response.Response``,
- which speeds up response generation slightly due to the way the Pyramid
- router works, b) allows us to provide alternate __call__ logic which also
- speeds up response generation, c) allows the exception classes to provide
- for the proper value of ``self.RequestClass`` (pyramid.request.Request), d)
- allows us freedom from having to think about backwards compatibility code
- present in ``webob.exc`` having to do with Python 2.4, which we no longer
- support, e) We change the behavior of two classes (HTTPNotFound and
- HTTPForbidden) in the module so that they can be used internally for
- notfound and forbidden exceptions, f) allows us to influence the docstrings
- of the exception classes to provide Pyramid-specific documentation, and g)
- allows us to silence a stupid deprecation warning under Python 2.6 when the
- response objects are used as exceptions (related to ``self.message``).
