There is a parsererror, but the way the error callback is described seems misleading. What if on a 200 response you returned JSON - But a 204, being that the response code is 'NO CONTENT', would not have JSON in it. Should it still error?
Shouldn't the desired effect be to ignore the data inside, or is this logic that should be handled as a case in dataFilter?
