            Bug ID: 23950
           Summary: New status code "invalid argument"
           Product: Browser Test/Tools WG
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux

Because we have commands that receive open-ended arguments there
should be a way for drivers to refuse performing a command because of
invalid or malformed arguments.  I suggest we call such a status code
“invalid argument”.

A good example of when this is needed is the setScreenOrientation
command which receives a string of either “PORTRAIT” or “LANDSCAPE”.
If the user sends something other than these strings the best a driver
can do right now is to pass a non-descriptive WebDriverException/500.
