All

Please describe the feature requested.
HttpIOExceptionHandler.handleIOException(HttpRequest, boolean) doesn't allow inspection of the originating exception. In certain scenarios it might be useful to do this.

e.g. I'm using an HttpIOExceptionHandler to force a retry in the case of this bug on Android: https://code.google.com/p/google-http-java-client/issues/detail?id=213 However, since I can't tell the type of exception thrown I'm having to retry regardless of the particular type of error.
