At a minimum, handle() should be something like:
public void handle( Request request, Response response ) {
init( request, response );
beforeHandle( request, response );
if ( response.getStatus().isSuccess() ) {
doHandle( request, response );
if ( response.getStatus().isSuccess() )
afterHandle( request, response );
}
}
although I'd still prefer the use of exceptions.

Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that the API for Filter allows
aborting a request. True?
This is another good case for using exceptions.
