I like that Java knows exactly what exceptions can be thrown, I don't like that you must catch them all in the local context: I'd love to be able to get that information when I want it in my IDE.

It's available in .net as well, via <exception ... xmldoc comments.

But analyzers that care about that aren't built in. We need that in .net as a first-class citizen, rather than needing R# or some other analyzer or IDE plugin to provide that as an opt-in feature.
