Question

Document that non-Encryption SDK exceptions can be raised

The API documentation for the Python Encryption SDK lists custom exception types, but the APIs may let through exceptions from underlying libraries (e.g. InvalidTag and InvalidSignature) from pyca/cryptography. We should add a note to the documentation stating this.

Alternatively (or additionally) we can try to wrap these kind of exceptions into Encryption SDK custom exceptions with additional context.

Philosophical note from the original author: this was not intentional. I would consider this a bug.
