Should be legal, right?, since syntax would be

On option 1 is this legal then?

Thinking more about the syntax options: if P.J.'s "if" Option is used,
it should also be optional.
That is, I would want this to also be legal,
<expression> except <expression>
to trap any exception when robustness is more important than catching a
specific exception.
Catch all exceptions:
<expression> except <expression>
Catch specific exceptions, optionally catching all others:
<expression> except (<expression> if <exception>)+ [else <expression>]
Of course, a catch-all is a bare except, with all its dangers!
What would be the typical next step in trying to put this forward? A
draft PEP?
