Description

I'm not sure this exception can ever actually happen. I think ColumnVisibility throws BadArgumentException in all the cases where the VisibilityParseException would have been thrown. It's somewhat unfortunate that the BadArgumentException is the RuntimeException, and the checked exception can never happen.

We need a test to see if we can make VisibilityParseException happen when BadArgumentException doesn't, and possibly do something about BadArgumentException, by either wrapping it with a checked exception, or something else to reflect the fact that it's more likely to happen than VisibilityParseException.
