Follow-up Comment #1:
Basically, one has to replace the old create_error_box() with the new
register_exception() stuff, that would be sending emails tacitly, and
then we can delete all notion of /error in the codebase everywhere.

_______________________________________________________
The /error URL is aliased on some systems (e.g. on RHEL) in a
system-wide place like httpd.conf. This clashes with our own /error
pages. So we would have to indicate people installing Invenio on such
systems to unalias /error in httpd.conf so that it would not clash.
This is easy. However, since the times register_exception() sends
emails automatically, the error sending usually does not require
interactive human input. So most of /error calls can be obsoleted.
We can therefore try to remove /error pages completely from the
codebase, and replace their usage via register_exception(), wherever
it is possible.
If we still need to gather some manual user feedback, then we should
rather use another URL with a textarea form that would be added to
register_exception() information, liberating /error, in order to avoid
this minor unalias nuisance. Maybe `/help/feedback' (exception to
webdoc pages) or something of that kind would be nice to use for this
purpose.
