Re: Error vocabulary

/ Alessandro Vernet <avernet@orbeon.com> was heard to say:
| Is the idea here that we could have a stack of errors? For instance,

|
| <err:errors name="foo" type="p:xslt">
|    <error code="p:error" href="style.xsl" line="400" column="30">You
| blew it, kid</error>
|    <error code="p:error" href="pipeline.xpl" line="200" column="20"/>
| </err:errors>

Yes. I think we've already said explicitly that the nature of errors
is pretty open-ended. The failure of one step can clearly cause
the failure of others. Some steps may generate more than one
error, etc.
