Description (last modified by Alasdair Nicol)

#29642 added checks for the signatures of custom error handlers.

When the 'path.to.view' cannot be imported, it raises ModuleNotFoundError or ViewDoesNotExist, as seen in this Stack Overflow question:

https://stackoverflow.com/q/55481810/113962

I suggest we catch the exception, and add another check code, e.g.

* **urls.E008**: The custom ``handlerXXX`` view ``'path.to.view'`` cannot be imported.

Hi Alasdair,

Thanks for the report, and the effort on StackOverflow. I'm happy to take this as improvement on the system check for 2.2.1. (Yes, catching an incorrect path is probably worthwhile.)
