Instead of throwing a VmError, could you subclass VmError with a more
specific error and throw that?
Fore sure I can. But what does this condition have so differently from
others that justifies that for it only?
Good question. Previously, we only threw opaque errors back over the
wire. A few months ago, we changed that so that we could pass
exceptions over the wire with specific Fault ids. The new Xend API
should be even better for this.
So, the answer we know have the ability to do useful things with this
info so it's now a best practice for new code :-)
I'm not suggesting you go change everything, just in your patch.

Although I agree with you that
such a specificiness is good, VmError is being thrown everywhere, meaning
that your proposal would require touching a great amount of code change.
Is there any plans/opposals for that?
