Why is this Pull Request needed?
Are there any points in the code the reviewer needs to double check?
This changes behavior that some users might expect. You might want to know if you serve media that 404s or 500s, and error (both report errors and show the user an error) rather than skipping over it. This will remain in DRAFT form until more feedback is provided. If someone wants this feature, consider adding the missing config option to gate it.
