Sorry, I'm not going to introduce a possible race condition because you find try/except to be less elegant than an if-contains test.  Also, I want to keep the current behavior of calling hash only once.  Your original complaint is valid though, so I'll go ahead and move the user_function call outside the exception block so as to avoid unnecessary exception chaining.
