Description

I'm using relative links throughout my application and allowing our reverse proxy to handle our secure port forwarding.

I just discovered that DefaultRequestExceptionHandler on line 210 is creating an absolute link for all xhr request.

https://github.com/apache/tapestry-5/blob/840533975a33d9094789bc09e40557a5c3ec7ba8/tapestry-core/src/main/java/org/apache/tapestry5/internal/services/DefaultRequestExceptionHandler.java

It has suggested on the mailing list by Dimitris Zenios to be link.toRedirectURI instead of toAbsoluteURI just like
AjaxLinkComponentEventResultProcessor does.
