  The advantage would be to allow for completely different Exception
  implementations while still beeing able to write a generic catch()
  handler like

    catch (Throwable $e) {}

  (Which does not mean that I think this really useful (for PHP, anyway) -
  I only wanted to show a possible solution to a problem stated in the
  thread)

  Exactly what I was thinking.
