-1.  This is odd.  I cannot remember any other language syntax that goes likes this.  Java, C++, C# and all other language that use {} as block notations share this syntax to write exception handlings:

```csharp
static void Main()
    {
        try
        {
            // something
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
            // something
        }
        finally
        {
            // something
        }
    }
```

Hi there!

There's pretty nice feature that we can use "short rescue" in method definitions: 

~~~ruby
def my_method
  raise '1234'
rescue
   puts 'rescued'
end
~~~

What about using this in blocks?

~~~ruby
loop do
  n = enumerator.next
  # do something
rescue StopIteration
end
~~~

P.S. actually I am not sure if this FR was not created earlier but I couldn't google it.
P.P.S sorry for my english
