The [JDK-8367067] (#26876) sub-task improved issues around exceptions thrown by request body publishers – which triggered the first encounter with this problem. This PR (and its associated sub-task) is aimed to end this saga.

Suggestion:

            if (exchangeExecutor != null) {
                // we're called by sendAsync() - make sure we translate exceptions  
                res = translateSendAsyncExecFailure(res);
