+# Handler Chain
+#
+# A chain of handlers that respond to call. Invoking handle(*args) on the chain
+# will call the handlers with the given args until one of them returns a result
+# that is truethy (i.e. not false or nil).
+#
+# Extracted from the dispatcher so we can also handle exceptions here in the
+# future.
