@nixme using exceptions makes do notation transparent to transaction-like code (like one in AR and sequel), this is an important use case. We could have two versions of do notation with raise/rescue and throw/catch and let the user decide but that would be an overkill. |

Do::Haltis aStandardError. Because of that rescue block can unexpectedly catch it in a wrapped method. This problem has been reported at #72If
Do::Haltwas a directExceptionderivative it would be nearly invisible to end-user.Both ActiveRecord and Sequel catch
Exception. While this indeed is a breaking change it shouldn't affect majority of users.In Discourse discussion we agreed that this breaking change will be included in some future major release.
