Seriously? Where does it end?

catch(MyTemplatedException!true) {
}

Parsing this as a proper type without a trailing identifier is a 
nice feature that a lot of people use, unlike the ghastly catch 
{} feature that nobody uses and should be considered harmful. 
Whether we constrain the former or kill the latter, they're both 
breaking changes. So why are we favouring the *bad* one?
