QP only transition in beforeModel of application route throws error

Reproduction: http://emberjs.jsbin.com/verocu/2/edit?html,js,output

Our app does some `beforeModel` checking of data to see what "location" the user is operating. If know query param for this is provided call `transitionTo` in order to force the user is at a location.

Because of some other logic I just added a `catch` to the promise chain that the `transitionTo` is a part of. Now I'm noticing the error shown in the above jsbin.

Interesting thing when trying to recreate is that if you have no `catch` on the promise chain and the QP is set `refreshTrue` then a second transition will fire, will have the correct query param and so the user won't notice the failure.
