In Python 2, it was possible to use `except` with a nested tuple, and occasionally natural. For example, `zope.formlib.interfaces.InputErrors` is a tuple of several exception classes, and one might reasonably think to do something like this:
try:
self.getInputValue()
return True
except (InputErrors, SomethingElse):
return False
As of Python 3.0, this raises `TypeError: catching classes that do not inherit from BaseException is not allowed` instead: one must instead either break it up into multiple `except` clauses or flatten the tuple. However, the reference documentation was never updated to match this new restriction. Make it clear that the definition is no longer recursive.
