Re: [twitter-dev] friendships/create method and 403 ambiguity
In the long term we plan to add internal error codes to every non 2** response so that the consumer can unambiguously know what error they got without munging error message strings (who's language might be changed innocently not knowing the consequences).

That'd be great. Currently I am using regular expression /Could\s+not\s+follow\s+user/i If there was any header like X-API-STATUS or X-TWITTER-ERRNO it'd be so easier to handle error.

[twitter-dev] friendships/create method and 403 ambiguity
There are two phrases about friendships/create. 1. If you are already friends with the user an HTTP 403 will be returned. 2. This method is subject to [1]update limits. An HTTP 403 will be returned if this limit as been hit. How to differ those two status codes?
