It doesn't appear that there's an easy way to do this. The events are triggered from UIComponentBase.broadcast() which calls each event.processListener() method which calls ActionListener.processAction() which calls methodBinding.invoke().
Ideally, you'd want to specify a custom methodBinding.invoke() that wrapped the error for you. Facelets does things differently -- maybe there's a way to create alternate MethodBinding rules for ActionSources which create your subclass of MethodBinding rather than the default MethodBinding instances. You could try asking about that on the facelets mailing list. Another possiblity is to use aspect-oriented-programming (AOP) to intercept methodBinding.invoke(). However, I don't use AOP, so I can't tell you anything beyond that it appears to do what you need.
