I think we should use a concept like this, and then implement the Catchy
internally so that the exception isn't thrown. I'd be cool to have a
feature request for this one though. At the moment we don't have time to
put it in the 2008.1 release, but I think we should have the development
modes in ezc for the 2008.2 release.
