The rationale for including TerminatingException in the PEP would also be 
satisfied by having a TerminatingExceptions tuple (in the exceptions 
module?). It makes sense to express the classification of exceptions that are 
intended to terminate the interpreter, but we dont need to express that 
classification as inheritence.
