Adrien Grand commented on LUCENE-7796:
--------------------------------------

Maybe we'd need to rename it as well to make clear that it returns an exception 
rather than throwing an exception. Otherwise I'm afraid it would be error-prone 
in void methods?

> Make reThrow idiom return Throwable to enforce code unreachability

> A spinoff from LUCENE-7792: reThrow can return an unchecked exception so that 
> one can use {{throw reThrow(...)}} idiom to let the compiler know subsequent 
> code would be unreachable.
