- The ``pyramid.request.Request`` class now has a ``ResponseClass`` interface
  which points at ``pyramid.response.Response``.

- The ``pyramid.request.Response`` class now has a ``RequestClass`` interface
  which points at ``pyramid.response.Request``.

- ``pyramid.response.Response`` is now a *subclass* of
  ``webob.response.Response``.  It also inherits from the built-in Python
  ``Exception`` class and implements the
  ``pyramid.interfaces.IExceptionResponse`` class so it can be raised as an
  exception from view code.

-  This means that an instance of any exception class imported from
-  ``pyramid.httpexceptions`` (such as ``HTTPFound``) can now be raised from
-  within view code; when raised, this exception view will render the
-  exception to a response.
