As far as I know, you can not override "raise".

If the CMF uses class exceptions (rather than string exceptions),
then you can override the exception classes (--> HotFix product).

Otherwise, you may have the chance to catch the exceptions
at a high level (-> ZPublisher.HTTPResponse) and translate
them there. This will not work, if the application catches
exceptions locally and provide its own handling.
