Comment:
I'm not sure about the cause of the observed change from 1.2 to 1.3, and I
can't find anything about it in the release notes or docs.
The change from 1.3 to 1.4 is, however,
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/releases/1.4/#no-wrapping-of-
exceptions-in-template-debug-mode documented in the release notes]. It did
not change the situations in which an exception will be raised, it just
changed which exception is raised when `TEMPLATE_DEBUG = True`; I don't
think there's any good justification for the previous exception-wrapping.
Personally, I'm +0 on reinstating thorough fail-silently with
`TEMPLATE_DEBUG = False`, but I can't claim to have kept up with all
discussions on the topic over the past few years.
