Actually. What if we just reused 'try'?

     foo = bar() except BazException try 'qux'

This also leads naturally to chaining multiple possible fallbacks:

I like it. Especially because 'try' already works with 'except'. (But note that 'try', like my proposal of 'then', normally introduces a block).
