Jiri Mikulasek opened SPR-11106 and commented

according to http://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/3.0.x/api/org/springframework/web/bind/annotation/ExceptionHandler.html
@Exceptionhandler should allow to handle also Errors, however it can't, cause DispatcherServlet doesn't catch and deliver that to ExceptionHandler

Affects: 3.2.4, 4.2.5
