PDD23 Exceptions question about embedding

[Stephen Weeks]

PDD23 currently says:

    When running an embedded Parrot interpreter, the interpreter does not
    immediately terminate on an unhandled exception, it merely returns
    control to the embedding program and stores the unhandled exception so
    that it may be queried by the embedding program. The embedding program
    may choose to handle the exception and continue execution by invoking
    the exception's continuation.

Can someone familiar with embedding verify this?
