+Throw an error in a `backbutton` callback to force the default behavior:

+```javascript
+document.addEventListener('backbutton', function (evt) {
+ throw "Exit"; // This will suspend the app

I don't see another way to handle this situation taking into account the
cordova-js implementation.
Theoretically we could use a callback return value from
`cordova.fireDocumentEvent('backbutton', evt, true);` but it only allows to
capture an exception but not a value.
