IIRC this has come up before and was vetoed on the grounds that we should, as far as possible, reduce the number of things that could possibly raise another exception once we're into the 500-handling, but I don't have a reference to it off the top of my head.

Resolution: → wontfix
Status: new → closed

Yeah, just found it: Adrian reverted RequestContext out of the 500 view in [3193]. Going ahead and marking this wontfix because of that.
