Henri Yandell closed LANG-585.
------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

Fixed - Exception caught now instead of Throwable. That handles 
RuntimeException too.

>
> It's generally a bad idea to catch Throwable.
> The getFormattedExceptionMessage method should be changed to catch less; e.g. 
> Exception + RuntimeException should be adequate.
> The Javadoc examples in ContextedException and ContextedRuntimeException 
> suggest catching Throwable; these examples should be changed too.
