      Description

      Review the helpful paper https://www.usenix.org/system/files/conference/osdi14/osdi14-paper-yuan.pdf

      It describes 'catastrophic failures', especially issues where exceptions are thrown but not properly handled. Their static analysis tool Aspirator turns up a bunch of the obvious offenders (Lets add to test-patch.sh alongside findbugs?). This issue is about going through code base making sub-issues to root out these and others (Don't we have the test described in figure #6 already? I thought we did? If we don't, need to add).
