> Suggestion to have the SerializationException from gremlin extend Java's IOException. Some other libraries like Jackson do it. 
> In Java 8 there is a new {{UncheckedIOException()}} that can be created and thrown at runtime, except it requires the underlying exception to be an IOException.
> Ideally if we SerializationException extended IOException we could do something like:
> {code:java}
>       try {
>         GraphBinaryWriter.write(object, bytebuf);
>       } catch (IOException e) {
>         throw new UncheckedIOException("Could not serialize", e)
>       }
> {code}
> So that the calling code does not throw a checked exception anymore. Also being able to catch IOException there would allow to be more generic.
