mod_rest: Catch and log errors in callback promise chain From the code it looks like it should be possible to reply to an error stanza, but it did not. Turns out I was saved by my local developer mode module which throws errors if an attempt is made to create an errror reply to an error stanza. However nothing collects this error from the promise, so all I got was confusion.

Introduction
============

[SIFT][XEP-0273] is a technology to allow clients to filter incoming
traffic on the server. This helps save bandwidth, etc.

Compatibility
=============

  ----- -------
  0.7   Works
  ----- -------

Quirks
======

This implementation is a work in progress.

-   Stanzas to full JIDs get sifted correctly
-   Stanzas to bare JIDs are currently allowed/disallowed for all
    resources as a whole, and not for individual resources
-   Presence is only sent to available resources, and probes are not
    sent for unavailable reasources
-   This module currently does not interact with offline messages
    (filtered messages are dropped with an error reply)
-   Not tested with privacy lists
