[jetty-user] test-jetty-servlet masks thrown exception types as of 7.6.0.RC4 (including latest release)

I'm using the Jetty Servlet Tester library to test a Filter.  The following 
test works fine in version 7.5.4.v20111024 and right up through 7.6.0.RC3....

@Test(expected = ServletException.class)
    public void initMissingHttpFilterRequiredParamContainer() throws Exception
    {
        final ServletTester localTester = new ServletTester();
        localTester.addFilter(HttpFilter.class, "/httpfilter/arbitrary/*", 
FilterMapping.REQUEST);
        localTester.setContextPath("");
        localTester.start();
    }

I expect a ServletException because a required init parameter wasn't set and, 
in such case, my filter throws a ServletException to indicate the problem.

But as of version 7.6.0.RC4 and right up through the latest 7.6.2.v20120308, I 
get the following error....

  
initMissingHttpFilterRequiredParamContainer(com.blah.servlet.HttpFilterTest): 
Unexpected exception, expected<javax.servlet.ServletException> but 
was<org.eclipse.jetty.util.MultiException>


It is not helpful to mask the real exception, and I certainly don't want to 
test specifically for "org.eclipse.jetty.util.MultiException" because that's 
not what I'm throwing and because it's Jetty-specific.

Was this change intentional or is an oversight/bug?
