Hi all,

It might be useful to incorporate the "retry if" condition that'll likely
arise in use of this, into the feature itself. Such that after the retry
keyword you could optionally specify a truthy value.

Then you could write something like

    $retries =3D 5;

    try {

        // =E2=80=A6

    } catch (=E2=80=A6) {

        retry $retries--;

    }

Kind regards,
Aidan
