When you do custom apps, it is common to handle this type of exceptions on the beans and take the proper actions inside it. This proposal could make easier handle this scenarios (Think on the possible alternatives of a custom action between several pages, example: a page to query some data and if no data found throw DataNotFoundException, so redirect to a page xxx or something like that). Obviously, there are other alternatives to do the same (handle errors). But the only way to know which option is better is trial and error. This feature could be on sandbox (after all, this is the place for trial and error). But I'm not very sure about this idea, maybe let it in another place. > > Seriously, what's wrong with the error page capabilities of the webapp > container? > Instead of error-code you can have error-type.
