Only the aforementioned return, or throwing a different exception,
AFAIK. You can also have it throw the exception.fillInStackTrace() in
order to ignore underlying method calls: especially useful for MSIE,
where the depth of the call stack can be quite... daunting.

However, the throw is better suited for placement in a catch().
