	Yeah, I think you're basically right about this.

	Right now, they probably are code errors -- the error being that the
wrong error message is thrown. :-) For example, bad URLs should result
in the error message "you have typed in a bad URL," or something like
that.

	I think the guideline should be, "If we can give the user something to
fix in the message, it's a UserError. If the user can't do anything
about it, it's a CodeError."
