したがって、Railsでwash_out gemを使用し、クライアントが不正なXMLを送信すると、応答は次のようになります。
<html>…
<body>
<h1>REXML::ParseException</h1>
…
次のような正しいSOAP応答の代わりに：
<soap:Body>
<soap:Fault>
<faultcode>soap:Client</faultcode>
…
私は最初にwash_out自体にパッチを適用しようとしました。テスト内からREXML::ParseExceptionを再現することができましたが、wash_outがparamsに触れる前に、Railsが実際に不正なXMLを解析（および爆発）することに気づきました。
では、wash_out gemをRailsにフックして、所有しているルートに対してのみ、これらの例外をレスキューできるようにする必要がありますか？
これが私たちが取り組まなければならないバックトレースです。フックするのに最適なポイントがあると確信していますが、どれかはまだわかりません。
