The logic of the code is a rewrite of http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/Python/Recipe/408937, however partial is used here and default Exception class is added when no input is given. I have also made some modifications in the way handlers and exception classes are passed to the decorator. (it was earlier posted in comments for the same receipe)

I've done something similar. I built a very complete wrapper around Twisted deferreds that uses decorators in such a fashion to define handlers and such in the same structure as synchronous code, but mapping it to asynchronous handlers through Twisted deferreds.
