This is an important point. A provisional idea that preserves our desire to not 
introduce new features to promises themselves, requiring user choice at 
authoring time, might be some kind of `console.unhandledRejections()` function 
which returns you a snapshot of the current unhandled rejections bucket.

I find these kind of things confusing. RSVP did something similar, introducing

```js
RSVP.rethrow = r => setImmediate(() => throw r);
```

so that you write

```js
somePromise.then(...).catch(RSVP.rethrow); // actually RSVP uses `fail`.
```

It's not clear to me why this, or your `Promise.throw`, is better than

```js
somePromise.done(...)
// or
somePromise.then(...).done()
```
