This sounds good to me. We talked about this briefly a year or so
ago, in
reference to being able to convert E_ERROR errors to exceptions in an
extension.
Right, my current patch allows you do to that for the new
"E_CATCHABLE"
error. I don't like the name though, so we need to come up with a
better
one (sorry Zeev :) .
My original proposal (at least as I recall it), was to move
irrecoverable errors to something like
E_UNRECOVERABLE_ERROR
or
E_FATAL
Leaving current errors as E_ERROR (since most are recoverable, imho)
