I would suggest adding some documentation on the errors e.g.
doc/error-code.txt, so we can document what are the errors and how
they are included on the reply (encoded within the error message as
string using hexadecimal values as in 0x04X, etc.), also we we want to
be crystal clear it would probably be a good idea to inform what
errors codes can appear on each Method like we do for the error
interface.
