You are absolutely right, I read that page a hundred times, if I read it once. Initially, I had it that way, then I was working on getting the stack trace to display the correct sequence (instead of the trace from the handler to my Exception class - and I ended up introducing another problem.

I was looking around and I see Fabien has a post that addresses the stack trace issue. http://fabien.potencier.org/article/9/php-serialization-stack-traces-and-exceptions
