I think this ticket should be renamed to "harmonized and establish a strategy for handling thrown things inside Futures.

Yes, there should be an option to silence exception logging with future, especially for when the exception is going to be contained within a future.

I made a post on the mailing list related to this before, and something else we should come up with is a policy on how exceptions are handled in these cases. I'm pretty sure the current strategy used within futures is based on how netty handles it's futures (as the method names look awfully familiar) and it uses catch-alls to handle exceptions as well.

I've tried to find a good reference on how to handle this in the context of a framework like Akka, but havent found anything. Especially when it comes to flow control throwables, interrupt exceptions, errors, etc.

I might come up with a draft policy (if I find the time) in order to get feedback, especially from those with lots of Java experience. We'll see :)
