This option can be used to implement custom behavior for handling
worker exits.  For example, let's say you have a specific request
that crashes a worker process, which you expect to be due to a
improperly programmed C extension. By modifying your worker to
save request related data in a temporary file and using this option,
you can get a record of what request is crashing the application,
which will make debugging easier.

This is not a complete patch as it doesn't include tests, but
before writing tests I wanted to see if this is something you'd
consider including in unicorn.

Example:

after_worker_exit do |server, worker, status|
  server.logger.info "worker #{status.success? ? 'exit' : 'crash'}: #{status}"

  file = "request.#{status.pid}.txt"
  if File.exist?(file)
    do_something_with(File.read(file)) unless status.success?
    File.delete(file)
  end
end
