parser.py raises unexpected Exception

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

import rdflib
rdflib.graph.Graph().parse(source="http://w3c.org/doesnotexist")

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

HTTPError

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Exception('"%s" while trying to open "%s"' % (e, self.url))

Instead of raising its own Exception why not take the Exception we get from 
urlopen()?

line 92:
-        try:
-            file = urlopen(req)
-        except HTTPError, e:
-            # TODO:
-            raise Exception('"%s" while trying to open "%s"' % (e, self.url))
+
+        file = urlopen(req)
+
