GvR> Maybe we should try to migrate to doing it this way in the GvR> future. With the traceback in the exception object, there's GvR> no need to call sys.excinfo() any more!

GvR> If people like this idea enough, perhaps it could be PEPped? I like this idea too, and would be happy to add it to the eventual Exceptions Uber-PEP. Maybe it should be a separate PEP though?

No, just add sections to the one PEP.
