Thanks for the clarification.  Is the solution of extending VelocityResult
and configuring it with a 
template name to return (e.g. 404.vm)  if the requested template throws the
ResourceNotFoundException 
a viable one ?  Or is there a way to handle this more elegantly ?

thanks again for your time!
