> I've made a new patch that includes a ReferenceInsertionEventHandler 
> ("InvalidReferenceHandler") that collects a list of all invalid references in 
> a Velocity page.
> To see how it works, look at the test code (the last two methods) in 
> BuiltInEventHandlerTestCase.
> To make this work, I had to make some changes to the internals.  So I thought 
> I'd hold off a couple days before committing, let any interested parties 
> comment. 
> There's a couple of interesting new pieces for plugin writers.
> (1) In any user-defined plugin (event handlers, uberspectors, etc) you can 
> now throw a subclass of VelocityRuntimeException (new exception).  to signal 
> unrecoverable states to the calling application.  This runtime exception 
> requires no change to the interface signature and is passed through the 
> Velocity parsing process.  (In the past, all Exceptions were caught and 
> logged).
> Example use: a custom uberspector or event handler that wishes to stop page 
> processing.  For example, the InvalidReferenceHandler can be configured to 
> throw an exception at the first reference error.
> (2) Event handlers can now receive information on the template name, line 
> number, and column by implementing InfoAware.  This only works for Local 
> event handlers attached to a context (as opposed to the new Global type 
> defined in Velocity properties).  
> Example use: InvalidReferenceHandler reports out the line,column, and 
> template name of each reference error.
> Everything is completely backwards compatible.  It'd be simpler if it wasn't 
> of course as they we could just redo the interfaces.
