Building a web app? 99.9% of the time, you let exceptions get caught by the http server and return 500 to the client. In a few rare cases where you want to do something else, you catch. If you don't catch, the client still gets 500 - a perfectly acceptable fallback. Building a GUI app? 99.9% of the time, exceptions in the UI loop should just display an error message to the user in a modal dialog and then get ignored. Sure, you can do something else, but the error dialog is a reasonable fallback. There is no good reason to torture the whole call stack to accommodate these problem domains.
