I have a great feature request for those of you who are like me that
is sick and tired of those failure assertion that pops up
everywhere, but nearly impossible to fix. With a failure assertion
exception, we can finally track down where it happens instead of
quitting or stuck trying to track it down.
No, if we tried to raise an exception rather than post a dialog, it
would almost always simply crash instead of doing anything. The
whole point of an assertion failure is that something has gone
dreadfully wrong and the app is about to die.
