   @apeforest I expect that this PR is one of multiple. In the end, there will 
be a dispatcher in between the operators and the initial call to the operators. 
That dispatcher will evaluate the capabilities of every registered operator and 
then return a unified message. The frontends shouldn't even know about the fact 
that there may be multiple operators.
   
   The way it was done in mkldnn is also not consistent. This evaluation has to 
come from a central component and the further processing as well. In this 
particular example you gave, the process would then fail to execute an operator 
although there might be other implementations available that actually support 
the requested operation.
   
   I think you got valid points regarding what's going to happen with the 
return value and at which point this logic is finally handled. Dick might be 
happy to answer this.
