Yes, why not?

Mostly I was trying to avoid interfering with languages or frameworks that use Error subtypes for intra-thread control logic. It will also slow down more types of exceptions (obviously, all of them) passing through rescues. But I have not done any benchmarking to see how expensive it actually turns out to be either way.

Do you have a use case for actually catching an Error?
