The "policy" is set by the design of Java since 1.0. The current approach fights against how exceptions were designed to work in Java. Sure, you can do it that way and it compiles and perhaps is documented, but it's more than little like building a car where first gear is full highway cruising speed and fourth gear is for pulling a horse trailer up a mountain. It's going to confuse everyone who tries to drive it and probably cause a few accidents, and documenting this in the owners' manual really wouldn't help. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
