The errors are almost always division by zero or some similar 
mathematical domain error, because plotted functions get sent exact 
rational numbers. Also, it's usually obvious on the plot where there's 
an error. In 3D and contour plots in particular, the holes are gaping.

That's not a bad idea. I'll think about how to implement it.
