Hrvoje, can we drop this subthread please. The topic was addressed way
back when PEP 3134 was written, and there is already dedicated syntax
to distinguish incidental exceptions in error handlers ("raise new")
from deliberate replacement of an exception with a new one ("raise new
from original")

Cheers,
Nick.
