Jetty client does swallow the exception and fails the callback,
resulting in the complete event being triggered, see
HttpSender.send[Headers|Content]() catch-all block.
The unwrapped exception actually tells me that it happened while you
were reading the request content of a request to a server, so you're
actually using Jetty's HttpClient as a kind of proxy.
I would not have known that by just reading the unwrapped exception,
so seems even useful to me...
