After further research, I've answered my own question.
I found this article: http://weblogs.java.net/blog/edburns/archive/2009/09/03/dealing-gracefully-viewexpiredexception-jsf2 . Doesn't exactly solve what I am trying to do, but the hooks allow me to do it. Instead of inspecting only certain exceptions and passing the rest on, I catch all exceptions, pass them onto my error page and then swallow them. This means that I can redirect to a JSF error page.
The code's a bit ugly, but I only have to write it once per project.
I also read somewhere that this area is something being considered for a future release of JSF2 (probably 2.1 I guess).
