express for node already does this, for error handlers:
http://expressjs.com/guide.html#error-handling
express is very popular; #4 on Most Depended Upon packages; #1 on Most
Starred at npm:
https://npmjs.org/
I will admit a certain amount of dislike for this technique, and
overloading in general; would it really be so hard to provide an
`app.useError()` API instead of 'overloading' `app.use()`?
