Can I catch multiple exceptions with a single value in this case?  Today, I
write:

    try:
        foo()
    except (TypeError, KeyError), msg:
        print msg

Either of the above seem like they'd require me to repeat the value, e.g:

    try:
        foo()
    except TypeError with msg, KeyError with msg:
        print msg

Not very Pythonic methinks.

Wasn't the proposal :

try:
    something
except NameError, OtherError as e:
    something...

?

With e being bound for any of the exceptions...

except TypeError or KeyError as msg: !

not-serious-ly y'rs,
