All Known Implementing Classes:

DefaultRequestExceptionHandler
```
@UsesMappedConfiguration(key=java.lang.Class.class,
                         value=java.lang.Object.class)
public interface RequestExceptionHandler
```
Service invoked when an uncaught exception occurs. The error handler is responsible for providing a response to the user to describe the error. The default implementation accepts the configuration, which maps an exception class to a corresponding helper. The helper is either an instance of ExceptionHandlerAssistant or is a Class for a page that will be redirected to, to present the exception.

The handler is also responsible for setting the response status and the X-Tapestry-ErrorMessage response header.
