Well, no matter what the programming language is, catching all
exceptions _is_ a bad idea. I don't think what you mean by being
``pythonish'', but if you mean ``pythonic'', I don't see how it is
related. See [1] for more. Catching all exceptions are only good if you
re-raise them at some point of time [2]. I may be a n00b, but Ian
Bicking is certainly not one.
And `import this' for the Zen of Python.
