Often its useful to get error information for ajax/javascript errors happening on various clients. This can go to something like this:

# error_sink
def error_sink(request):
    # post request, with event name in "event", and event data in "data"
    context = request.REQUEST.get("context", "")    
    context = cgi.parse_qs(context)
    context["data"] = cgi.parse_qs(context.get("data", [""])[0])
    context["user"] = request.vuser
    context["referrer"] = request.META.get('HTTP_REFERER', "referrer not set")
    context = pformat(context)
    send_mail(
        "ajax error", context, "no-reply@example.com",
        ["me@example.com",], fail_silently=True
    )    
    return JSONResponse({"status": "ok" })
# }}}
