Re: Error codes

/ Richard Tobin <richard@inf.ed.ac.uk> was heard to say:
| Just a minor point, but I think that have numbers to identify errors
| is a really bad idea, which should have gone out in the 1960s.  If
| we need standardised error identifiers, they should be reasonably
| meaningful strings like XS-step-loop instead of XS0001.

I was just following in the footsteps of our circa 1960 bretheren,
XPath 2.0 and XSLT 2.0. If you'd like to propose alternate local names
for errors, I don't object to making them names instead of numbers.
