Answer 1

Since Spring 4.3.5 (SPR-14651) you can use stright away your first aproach:

@ExceptionHandler(MyRuntimeException.class)
public String myRuntimeException(MyRuntimeException e, RedirectAttributes redirectAttrs){
    redirectAttrs.addFlashAttribute("error", e);
    return "redirect:someView";
}
