This is an interesting avenue. The problem is the chain-ability and value
like nature of promises. It is difficult to truly determine that the error
has not been handled. The error may be handled later down the chain or in a
separate context. When is the decision made that the error has not been
handled? Is the error determined not handled on garbage collection? Is
there a ttl on error handling? This is a curious case, but if feasible
would be the most elegant option.

rejectedPromise = promise.then(func)
    .then(func) //Error swallowed
    .then(func);

setTimeout(function () {
    rejectedPromise.then(func, errorHandler); //Finally handle it
}, 20000);
