I have discussed with ekneuss about this FR for a bit.

thanks to ekneuss, we found there are some limits, 

1. since PHP is a dynamic language, then for $obj->function, we can not 
determine what $obj is, so if we want to implement this FR, we have to do the 
check at run-time.

2. there is another question while for following codes:
   function bar($i) {
       if ($i == 42) {
          $obj->someFuncThrowException();
       }
   }
   so,  should we trigger WARNING all the times?

3. unlesss ZEND_CATCH is executed, we have no idea what type of exception will 
be caught by catch, so, if we implement a whole exception type check, we will 
need: exception autoload, and catch statements analyse , which will bring a 
obvious performance slow down..

anyway, I can do more research later , thanks :)

I think one my wish should not be the reason of performance slowdown in all 
scripts, which use try-catch.
Thanks for your time and explanation. Close this ticket please.
