You two are bigger users of this then I currently am (the curse/blessing of switching jobs), which is why I've let you hash it out.
Let me point out: my goal is to deal with errors in a way which does not cause a total crash, a lockup, or hanging processes. Whether or not we lose jobs is another thing entirely, and something I'm torn on.
I also need to mention - I think we can add fixes to the behavior to 2.7 - we can not, however, change the API. If we change the API, this fix will be only on Python 3.2 which is not what I suspect either of you want.
