It seems from various bugs and recent discussions that the distinction
between OperationError and DataError is not consistently implemented in the
specification nor all that easy to define rigorously and in some cases
possibly actively harmful.

How would people feel about removing the distinction and returning the same
error for all the cases presently covered by OperationError and DataError ?
