I like this RFC! It's much more intuitive as the current BaseException 
approve.

Some small notes:

available in the global namespace.
Where are the new classes and the interface located if it's not in the 
global namespace or do I muss something?

If I remember right the TypeException/TypeError will be thrown in some 
cases of internal functions with strict argument count.
In my opinion a missing argument or to much arguments has nothing to do 
with the type and should have it's own Exception/Error class.
