Review comment:
       Currently the design is for the ErrorContainer to return TableRow's (or 
BigQueryError<TableRow>).  My worry is that it wouldn't be backwards compatible 
to make this generic, though I agree it would be more valuable.
   
   I think this question is important and is my only big open question around 
this design
