I wonder if it would be better if the `onFailure` method would not return a
boolean but throw a Throwable?
This way users have more flexibility in implementing their failure handler.
For example if a failure handler is doing three retries and fails
afterwards, the original exception will be thrown. If the `onFailure()` method
can throw their own exception, you can throw a custom exception that tells the
user about the three retries.
We can definitively discuss this because this change is annoying to do
(docs & javadocs need to be updated).
