The HTTP spec says:
Response status codes beginning with the digit "5" indicate cases in
which the server is aware that it has erred or is incapable of
performing the request.
10.5.1 500 Internal Server Error
The server encountered an unexpected condition which prevented it
from fulfilling the request.
So yes, I think that it would make sense to return status code 500 when
an unhandled exception occurs.
