A `BadRequest` exception raised in a view, is handled by the `handler400`
view (default `django.views.defaults.bad_request`).
https://github.com/django/django/blob/c68e4adea0703354508d51895b091771b1f6ac45/django/core/handlers/exception.py#L96-L104
Looking at the documentation, I can't see this link mentioned anywhere.
Places I looked:
* https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/views/#the-400-bad-request-

* https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/urls/#handler400
* https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/exceptions/#badrequest

view
