I propose that we should change the Python bindings so that when the

According to:
http://docs.python.org/lib/module-exceptions.html
"[KeyError is] raised when a mapping (dictionary) key is not found in
the set of existing keys."
I've already changed the OCaml bindings so that these errors get
converted into Not_found exception, which is the "natural" exception for
when something is looked up and not found.
I think this makes sense, I just wonder a bit about the impact on
existing client code,
