I agree and ISTM a natural generalization of this to allow exception type
specification would be

expr except(Exc1, Exc2) fallback

or

expr except[Exc1, Exc2] fallback

I am not sure if any of these have been proposed, so apologies if they were.

This said, I would still prefer the variant with the column as the closest
to the existing syntax.
