-----------------------------------
    Resolution: Won't Fix

At the risk of sounding unreasonable, the execution of a template induces an 
isolated execution context in which all errors are treated with equanimity. A 
*serious problem* in a user tool doesn't imply a serious problem in the web 
application. All exceptions will appear in the logs.

>             Project: Velocity
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Engine
>    Affects Versions: 1.7
>         Environment: n.a.

> If a method call throws a java.lang.Error, Velocity wraps it in a 
> MethodInvocationException, which itself is not a java.lang.Error.
> The spec says: "An Error is a subclass of Throwable that indicates serious 
> problems that a reasonable application should not try to catch."
> Wrapping the error hides it from applications and makes it difficult to 
> handle.
