After looking at the code, I think a behavior decision is necesary
before a test case. I can understand the reasoning for raising an
exception, but it would be really valuable if the page were still
available from the exception. I think putting the page into the
ResponseCodeError would be a decent approach. Thoughts Aaron?
Should I make a patch to the svn trunk?
