Fair enough. If it's a problem, I'm sure Flask could do something like
(untested):

error = False
try:
    next(whatever)
except StopIteration:
    error = True
if error: raise ValueError("...")

which would work across all. But that's assuming that it really is
just a small matter of traceback ugliness. The post implies that it's
a lot worse than that.
