Haven't had a chance to dig into this yet. Basically when we're in winrt callbacks, the runtime handles exceptions directly rather than calling our handlers. try-catch com exception handling doesn't avoid this. Typical stacks:

for a null deref in the key down event handler. We'll need to figure out what's going on here and fix it, the resulting exception brings up windows error reporting.
The generated code traps these:

namespace Windows
{
  namespace Foundation
  {
    __declspec ( no_refcount ) inline long __stdcall :: Windows :: Foundation :: ?$TypedEventHandler...
    {
      long __hr = 0 ;
      try
      {
        Invoke ( __param0 , __param1 ) ;
      }
      catch ( :: Platform :: Exception ^ __param0 )
      {
        __hr = Platform :: Details :: ReCreateFromException ( __param0 ) ;
      }
      catch ( ... )
      {
        __abi_FailFast ( ) ;
      }
      return __hr ;
    }
  }
}
Horrible. Can we override __abi_FailFast?
(and just have it mozalloc_abort()?)

I was searching the net yesterday for a clean way to do this but didn't find much. We already do something like this for free but it requires some ugly link hacking.

Any ideas?
Since we delay load vccorlib, I think we can trap this in our DelayDllLoadHook.
