And it can't. register_exception_translator interface is intended to tweak a report about unknown exception being thrown from test case. BOOST_CHECK_NO_THROW puts expression under test into a simple try catch block. You can add you own try/catch if you want to to ignore some exceptions.

Yes, I can add separate try/catch block to ignore exceptions, but why I can't reuse logic of error reporting implemented in registered exception handler?

It doesn't matter how BOOST_CHECK_NO_THROW is implemented. Why I must to comment this statement only for one purpose: to see in log what's happened. And it's incorrect to replace this statement with try/catch because it already communicates test's intension correctly.
