It looks like we agree on the fact that there is nothing fundamentally 
different in the way `throw` works in JavaScript as a language compared to 
Python and Ruby.

Does it mean that this paragraph of Node.js documentation about domains:

"By the very nature of how throw works in JavaScript, there is almost never 
any way to safely "pick up where you left off", without leaking references, 
or creating some other sort of undefined brittle state."

could be rewritten as is (without "in JavaScript"):

"By the very nature of how throw works, there is almost never any way to 
safely "pick up where you left off", without leaking references, or 
creating some other sort of undefined brittle state."

This is important because the current phrasing makes a beginner like me 
think there is something specific to Node.js that justifies the strategy 
"restart process in case of an unexpected error". But in fact it could be a 
general advice applicable to other technologies as well like Tornado, for 
example. Correct?
