"""Exception-catching middleware that allows interactive debugging.

This middleware catches all unexpected exceptions.  A normal
traceback, like produced by
``weberror.exceptions.errormiddleware.ErrorMiddleware`` is given, plus
controls to see local variables and evaluate expressions in a local
context.

This can only be used in single-process environments, because
subsequent requests must go back to the same process that the
exception originally occurred in.  Threaded or non-concurrent
environments both work.

This shouldn't be used in production in any way.  That would just be
silly.

If calling from an XMLHttpRequest call, if the GET variable ``_`` is
given then it will make the response more compact (and less
Javascripty), since if you use innerHTML it'll kill your browser.  You
can look for the header X-Debug-URL in your 500 responses if you want
to see the full debuggable traceback.  Also, this URL is printed to
``wsgi.errors``, so you can open it up in another browser window.
