Go already lets you recover from panics in a way similar to Java exceptions. For example, the standard library's HTTP server recovers from panics so if a request handler has an out-of-bound array access (or other panic-inducing error) the server continues serving other requests. It sounds like the programs you're fuzzing are missing an opportunity to be more robust.

The "try" proposal is about handling routine, expected errors.
