#fatal_error(env, exception) ⇒ Object

Generate a very simple fatal error response. This function should be unlikely to fail. Additionally, it generates a lowest common denominator response which should be suitable as a response to any kind of request. Ideally, this response is also not good or useful for any kind of higher level browser or API client, as this is not a normal error path but one that represents broken behaviour.
