Oh, yes. Calling the callback itself off a timeout is a non-starter. I assume that Tab was talking about rethrowing the exception off a timeout.

    caught and rethrown or just not caught.

I did not intend it to do so. Could you explain?

Sorry, observably detecting via a debugger, not from the script itself.

(You can notice rethrows and things by inspecting the stack trace, but I
assume that's not what you meant.)

That's an interesting issue too. Right now I believe browsers can internally rethrow an exception without changing its stack trace... But there is no way for script to do that.
