I can't agree with you on this point. Using exceptions for expected failures is simply wrong; it is an widely recognized anti-pattern. It's not an accident all prominent C++ experts advice against this practice. Plenty of rationale is singel Google query away, e.g. [1][2][3][4]. If you want, you can find a lot more.
