Lately, it seems like I can never tell whether anyone's being serious or not
online. :)

Out of the syntaxes I could come up with:
catch(Ex1, Ex2 e)
catch(e : Ex1, Ex2)
catch(Ex1 | Ex2 e) // java 7 syntax, horrible

I like (e : list) the best.  Naturally it would also accept a type tuple of
exceptions.

LOL. Personally, I actually think that the Java 7 syntax looks great (I'd
never seen it before), but catch(e : Ex1, Ex2) is just as good and more
consistent with the language as a whole, since it doesn't try to give any
operators a new meaning (as Java's does).

How is "catch(e : Ex1, Ex2)" consistent with the language? It's completely backwards. catch-block are written as follows:

catch (Exception e) {}

Not

catch (e : Exception) {}
