[Seaside] Handling Errors

Avi,

I'm guessing that you often subclass WASession in your applications, and 
that you override #handleError: to not allow the user to 'Debug' the 
application?

Seems onerous to ever give the end user a 'Debug' option with stack 
walkback in their browser.  That should be for development only.
