Hi

We have started changing some of endpoints already, if you e.g. try to get
a invalid data-element /api/dataElements/abc123 you will see the new output
format (xml and json supported, json is default). I have not started
changing the import conflict format yet, and it probably will not be
changed for 2.20, I'm hoping to start a rewrite of the importer in 2.21,
and the change of response format would then end up being in that release.

Besides the import conflicts, if you are still seeing plain text error
messages anywhere, please report back to me and I will replace them with a
proper message.
