   @etr2460, this is great. It looks like a step towards getting all API 
responses to have a standard shape. One thing that I would change a tiny bit 
would be the response shape. Enums are awesome for this sort of thing, but one 
thing I would add would be an error "code" which would simply be an `int` which 
can then be taken action upon by the consumer. There's also the potential for 
having multiple errors in a given response (think API validation where several 
keys are required). In my view, Enum names should be used solely for the 
purpose of code organization, and should not be transmitted to consumers. 
Instead, error state should depend on the "error code".
   
   A slight variation to your structure:
   ```
   {
       "errors": [{
          "code": 123,
          "message": "Something is wrong here",
          "extra": {
              // Additional contextual stuff in here, for instance field 
validation messages
          }
       }]
   }
   ```
