Sending AngularJS $log.error() messages into Cobalt ErrorGUI?

In WestlawNext, a `Cobalt.Error` or (unhandled exceptions via `window.onerrror`) would flow through the Website module into ErrorGUi. In AngularJS, [$log][1] and [$exceptionHandler][2] are defined and can be used. Similar to [Enhancing AngularJS Logging using Decorators][3], are they any examples in Cobalt of enhancing $log to send errors to the server and into ErrorGUI? [1]:

    It looks like Drafting Assistant is using `$log` extensively. They have a custom wrapper around `$log` which will post errors to Website for logging. I believe they are using a custom endpoint for logging these errors (vs. using the platform one). Take a look at the following file on Cobalt's TFS instance: $\Cobalt Static Content\Development\StaticContent\site\Products\Drafting.Westlaw\wsf\plc\js\draftingCommon\errorHandling\dcErrorLogClient.js Here is a link to the file (and a related one) via the TFS web interface: [Drafting Assistant error handling services][1] [1]:
