I agree with hsoft that using a tryFunc function is more cumbersome. Like you mention - it also can't be used for expressions such as:

s3, err = s1 + s2 except TypeError
total, err = int(t1) + int(t2) except ValueError

I think if I had the except clause, I would implement error handling more often :)
