To clarify the things a little bit: In a TYPO3 environment set up 
correctly, no exception messages are shown in the FE. Whether Extbase is 
used or not. But IMO there is no proper mechanism to catch an exception 
thrown inside an extension at the "borders" of the extension by now. 
This leads to a blank page if an exception is thrown inside an 
extension. The patch allows to let the page be rendered. Only the plugin 
content will be left empty.

The common option in TYPO3 is to catch the Exception only on top level 
and hand it over to an appropriate handler.

So, no security issue but a new feature.
