I doubt it. Few people are going to put a __future__ statement in to
make sure that *don't* use a particular feature: it's just as easy to
grep your source code for "except:". __future__ is in general only
used to enable new syntax that previously has a different meaning.

Anyway, you can make it an error globally by using the -W option creatively.
