   That’s a dumb way of doing it. Most of the errors from an SQL call   
   indicate program bugs. The only exception I have come across is   
   IntegrityError, when used to indicate an attempt to add a record with a   
   duplicate value for a key that must be unique. That can sometimes be   
   usefully caught and reported back to the user as an error with the data   
   that they are trying to enter.
