The typical use case is that if an exception occurs and a transaction is rollbacked, the stacktrace should be logged. But I can imagine that there are cases where this isn't the desired behavior. Maybe we could add a Activiti engine wide property that doesn't log exceptions of a specific type. Is that what you are looking for?
