    If this is truly, "unexpected error but we need to do things",
    perhaps you can use before_flush() to memoize the details you need

    An event hook can be added but it would need to be carefully
    considered what the specific use case for this hook is.   For
    example I'm not sure "before_rollback()" is really what this should
    be, it likely should be "on flush exception" similar to how engine
    does it.


My specific need is related to https://github.com/amol-/depot/issues/36

DEPOT allows loading files associated to database data.
In case of a rollback DEPOT deletes the files that got uploaded.

That works in case of `.flush()` + `.rollback()` because it gathers the
history of the entity and the changed files in `before_flush`, but if a
rollback is issued without a flush it currently lacks an event from
which it can get the state of the objects and their history before the
rollback.


Looking at the code for how the events are called I would say that moving the after_rollback() event call to be before the attributes are reset might be more appropriate. The after_commit() event works this way, that is, inside of after_commit() things have not yet been expired. This would be an example of how critical it is that we consider really deeply how these events are implemented. Throwing them in quickly is how these design mistakes occur.
