Is this on purpose?


Python 3.2rc1 (py3k:88040, Jan 15 2011, 18:11:39)
[GCC 4.4.5] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
 >>> Exception.__name__
'Exception'
 >>> e = Exception('has no name')
 >>> e.__name__
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: 'Exception' object has no attribute '__name__'
