I'm curious what types of exceptions are actually thrown in LibreOffice.
Does it throw -- scalars?  Objects?  Just pointers ("Java style")?

LibreOffice's UNO component system has a large exception hierarchy, which is modeled as a hierarchy of classes in C++. So what is thrown is typically (copies of) stack-allocated class instances, of specific sub-classes of com::sun::star::uno::Exception.

If we had the convenience variable mentioned above, and if LibreOffice
has a relatively simple "exception identity" measure (e.g., if you only
throw pointers, you can just compare them with ==), then it could
perhaps be done by: break at the losing catch, make a conditional "catch
throw", then re-run.

Overall execution in LibreOffice is likely dynamic enough that the relevant exception class instance has different addresses in different runs.
