That's great progress. Do you have documentation for how things
work? For example, what's the lifetime of the pointer people
will get from std::exception::what().
IMHO: don't worry about catching exceptions by value; it's
almost always either incorrect, uninteresting, or both. The
prize is catching (references to) classes rooted in
std::exception. Nice-to-have is catching (references to)
classes rooted in other C++ classes.
A blog post would be fantastic.

Although a little late and probably less user-oriented than you
wanted?
For example, what's the lifetime of the pointer people will get
from std::exception::what().
The exception object gets destroyed on exiting the catch (C++)
block if the exception isn't rethrown.
