Trevor Parscal b4de3ead08 Throw ve.Error instead of string literals
Throwing strings is bad because it doesn't include a lot of important
information that an error object does, such as a stack trace or where
the error was actually thrown from.

ve.Error inherits directly from Error. In the future we may create
more specific subclasses and/or do custom stuff.

Some interesting reading on the subject:
