Comment(by mikeperry):

 The problem here is that this exception can be thrown from a wide variety
 of places... I can improve this message for disk full and permission
 denied, but other exceptions can be thrown from elsewhere, too...

 Do we think it is Torbutton's job to detect these condition? What about
 the error messages that happen in tor's logs when it can't write to disk..
 Or when Vidalia can't save configuration files.. How many warning messages
 do we throw at the user for these situations right now, and who should
 turn them into dialog boxes?
