It doesn't look like it.  Error handling on Quixote is still a bit
krufty.  Applications should be able to override the formatting of error
pages (e.g. 404 errors).  I've been meaning to clean that part of
Quixote up for a while now but haven't got to it yet.  My current plan
is to change the publisher to look up the error handler using getattr on
namespace (e.g. getattr(object, "_q_except")).  You could then define
function that formats error pages like:

    def _q_except(exception):
        

The publisher would traverse up the path looking for the nearest
handler, much like exception handling.  If none can be found then a
default handler is used.
