      Hi Ideas,

I frequently find myself in the following situations:

1) I wish to do something if no exception is thrown, for instance:

    try:
        logger.debug('Fiber starting: %s', self)
        try:
            self._result = self._routine()
        finally:
            logger.debug('Fiber finished: %s', self)
    except:
        raise
    else:
        raise FiberExit(self)
    finally:
        self._finished.set()
        unregister_fiber(self)
Here it's sufficient that that if an exception is already present, I
don't need to raise another. The except clause is clearly pointless.
2) I'm experimenting with catching various exceptions and remove the
last except clause. I need to put a finally: pass; to avoid having to
restructure all my code, since this is currently the only way to
maintain the try-except-else-finally statement without catching dummy
exceptions.

I propose that the except clause be optional.
