Fortunately the votes on the poll for this look to very much be against the PEP's proposal. I don't mind Python being improved, but as we learned from the 2->3 transition it should not be changed in ways that break old code. All that will do is have people forever sitting on an old version of Python. That's a worse situation that having code with bare excepts.
