Note that this example is covering the deferred case of multiple except
clauses that resolve to different values, not the already handled case of
multiple exception types that resolve to the same value.

Anyway, even if you choose not to switch the parenthesis requirement in
PEP, it should at least make the "colon as in dict display, not as in suite
introduction" comparison, and note this as an alternative proposal for the
required parentheses.
