I see two motivating factors for an except expression:
- one line try/except handling for simple cases
- easier default value handling when function/method does not support a default value
Given that, I don't think we need to support multiple exception types or chained exceptions. If it's that complicated,
use an actual try block -- it'll be much more readable.
