I think the conclusion of this issue is: before_send is used to strip sensitive data, and there we will not send errors happening in there to Sentry, because this could send sensitive information to Sentry.

If there are problems in before_send you need to run sentry with debug=True set to see errors on the console. This is how the state of things is right now.

I am closing this issue.

If you want to provide a way to better handle errors in before_send please go ahead and create a new issue linking to this one. Thanks!

Those exceptions are logged when you set init(debug=True). Reporting to Sentry is an interesting idea though.
