I also think that the bar should be pretty high before we reopen the *syntax* -- the PEP was approved without anyone (neither the SC, nor Nathaniel, nor anyone else) providing any feedback on the use of 'except *'. So I think it's a bit late to be bikeshedding the syntax. This thread was meant to solicit feedback on how to *format* it: does the space go before or after the '*'.
`except* E`, otherwise it looks like unpacking E. Done! Bikeshedding is over! *wink* All joking aside, my preference is to put the star on the except, not the exceptions. I don't think I have anything more to say that hasn't already been said, so I'll bow out now. -- Steve
