Excuse me if I couldn't find that in the existing PEPs, but
wouldn't that be useful to have a construct that explicitly
tells that we know an exception of specific type could happen
within a block, like:
----------------------------------
ignore TypeError:
do stuff
[else:
do other stuff]
being essintially identical to
try:
do stuff
except TypeError:
pass
[else:
do other stuff]
----------------------------------
The reason for that being self-tests with lots and lots of
little code snippets like this:
try:
c().foo()
except TypeError:
pass
which could be written as
ignore TypeError: c().foo()
