      I was under the impression that catching `MongoException` was sufficient for error handling driver calls to the database. In cases of network/mongo instability, I'm also seeing `IllegalStateExceptions` which is escaping our normal error handling.

      Would it make sense to have all exceptions extend from `MongoException`? If not, is it possible to publicly document a definitive list of high-level exceptions that can come out of mongo driver calls that all applications are recommended to catch? Is that list limited to `MongoException` and `IllegalArgumentException`? If so, can we guarantee nothing new will be added that doesn't fit that classification or is it recommended for applications to catch `Exception`?
