Description

When Mentat does not get identity field, it throws up exceptions - which throws another.

Throwing exception is not itself wrong, throwing another based on the same reason from the handler is.

However, the problem might be legitimate (identity provider not sending attributes), so user should probably be somehow informed, instead of getting generic 500 page.

Also, exception handler should log some relevant info (obtained auth data or so) for admin debugging.

(Setting priority to low, as it is now mitigated by Shibboleth configuration on server, however we should look into it eventually.)
