For performance purposes I would like the compiler
to optimize empty catch-clauses like

try {
  ... // program
}
catch (Exception e) {
  throw e;
}

into

... // program

because the catch-part apparently doesn't do
anything.

This programming style can be used to react
somehow on exceptions during the development
phase that are not expected to occur in the
final product version.

I would appreciate also if anybody could give
me a workaround for my problem.
