      # controller to the flail gem via the env variable (data is always passed, even if no 
      # exception is thrown). This hook only works when a host app's controller is called. 
      # Routing error exceptions are thrown before the controller is called so those errors are 
      # handled elsewhere and contain less information (mainly the user data is missing).
