Strange try .. catch behaviour when throwing exception

        function test()
        {
            var exceptionCaught = false;

            try
            {
              console.log("try");
            }
            catch(e)
            {
              console.log("catch " + e);
              exceptionCaught = true;
            }

            if(!exceptionCaught)
              throw "exception thrown outside above try scope";
            else
              console.log("executed again?!");
        }

qml: try
qml: catch exception thrown outside above try scope
qml: executed again?!
