I guess I have.  Thanks Ken & Corbin for straightening me out. :)

Yes, I agree with and am aware of all that.  I currently use FeedbackReporter:
<https://github.com/tcurdt/feedbackreporter>

to handle the (mostly rare) exceptions that make it to the user.  I was 
thinking that NSApplicationShowExceptions was maybe meant to replace such 
things.

FeebackReporter works mostly well but I'm unsure of the correct way to handle 
uncaught exceptions on non-main threads/queues.  It seems to always result in 
the app being killed no matter what I do.

Cheers,
