It is a feature that could certainly be built in. First 
you could switch off scripting all together which is 
already possible. On the other hand the getIncludeScript 
handling that was modified by me just a few days ago 
could not only silently fail as is possible by setting 
the setExceptionsThrownOnScriptError 
but you could add some functionality along the lines you 
are describing above. Please follow the FAQ as I have 
sent it around yesterday.

I'm looking forward to your patch + testcase.

Yours
  Wolfgang
