[Bug 616840] [NEW] Some really poor error reporting in xmlrpc auth (could easily be improved)

 

Public bug reported:

The form validation for the xmlrpc form, by default, just gives the
completely useless error message - "An unknown error occurred while
processing this form".   As this is an area where errors can easily
occur this sort of message should be improved. Even if you just dump the
contents of the exception object there is a whole host of useful
information but this error handling doesn't report or log even the basic
error message.
