JSON-RPC not forwarding exceptions/errors causing browser to time-out on calls

[amain]

ui/web/json_api.py:

    def _on_rpc_request_failed(self, reason, response, request):
        """
        Handles any failures that occurred while making an rpc call.
        """
        request.setResponseCode(http.INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR)

Above code will never send back a JSON-RPC response to the browser. Causing the browser to time-out. This can easily be reproduced by raising an DelugeError? exception in one of the Deluge daemon @export RPC methods.

As a result exceptions can't be used to inform browser on RPC failures. Note that there is also no other mechanism in Deluge to create JSON-RPC error responses. Making it hard to handle errors generically in the browser.

What would you suggest as a solution?
