I couldn't agree more!  I have long waited for sub classes of 
SQLException that at least distinguish basic error classes, e.g.
  - SQLConnectionException: network or other connectivity issues
  - SQLConstraintException: trying to insert a duplicate PK
  - SQLResourceException: server could not fulfill the query because of 
lacking tmp tablespace, memory or what
  - SQLSyntaxException: should be obvious

I think that would be enough to do a lot better error handling.

Kind regards
