A shallow catch would effectively need to mean "the exceptions uppermost traceback frame referers to one of the program lines in the try/except suite". Which would work well for lists and other builtin types. And might be insufficient for a duck-type with python-coded dunder methods.
I think it would be a very bad idea to have a language construct that only works for built-in types. It would be far too unpredictable and fragile. -- Greg _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list Python-ideas@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-ideas Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
