Interesting idea. Just by reading that I thought of this scenario instead:
---------------
try {
echo "about to throw exception";
throw new Exception;
echo "still alive";
} catch (Exception $e) {
resume;
}
-------------
Which kinda looks nice to have. But how about this:
--------------
function my_function()
{
echo "throwing exception";
throw new Exception;
echo "still here?";
}
try {
echo "calling function";
my_function();
} catch (Exception $e) {
resume;
}
----------------
By the time the exception is handled, the function stack would have
been unloaded, so how would it be able to resume? :)

This feels a bit too magical IMO
