Just checked to see how Ruby deals with this. Both languages allow one to register a trace functon to catch "events" like call, line, return, exception, etc. Ruby however register an event before the raise takes place.
It might be cool for some good person to go through the process of making a formal suggestion this get added, etc. (unless a change like this is already in the works). "Diez B.
