Re: [RFC][DISCUSSION] throw expression

I think this is great. It reminds me of a construct that Hack introduced called "as expressions": With throw expressions the Hack assignment, $a = $b as string; would be equivalent to the PHP assignment $a = is_string($b) ? $b : throw new TypeError('$b must be a string'); If this passes, it would be great to see sugary equivalents get added to the language too.
