--- Comment #12 from Daniel van Vugt <daniel.van.vugt at canonical.com> ---
So I think reliability should be the first priority.

Also, I don't *think* the affected function would usually be used in any
performance-sensitive location so the slowdown required to catch errors is
probably never noticeable. And it's less undesirable than the crashes we get
from not catching them at all.
