Thanks for the update!

Just to verify:

- All paths forward will use error objects that contain "name" and 
"message" fields, right?
- The "name" field will still have defined values that are in 
camelCaseWithInitialLowerCase, right?

I think that's the parts people were first of all hoping to see no 
change to.
