ErrorPageApplicationWrapper will (if enabled) catch application errors and (if handle_exceptions (which is default)) store them in backlash.exc_environ and backlash.exc_info where backlash TraceErrorsMiddleware can pick it up. It will catch and store no matter if backlash.TraceErrorsMiddleware actuallly is enabled. Disabling backlash with trace_errors.enable (which users might want for other reasons) will thus effectively hide application errors. That dependency will confusingly hide errors when they happen, and doesn't seem necessary.
I suggest to effectively let errorpage.handle_exceptions default to false if not using TraceErrorsMiddleware.
(In some ways it seems like it would be better have these two middlewares come in the opposite order.)
