Can you point to the relevant implementation?

FWIW, we've found in swiftclient that's it's been extremely restrictive to
return tuples and in retrospect would have preferred either a (status,
headers, body) signature (which unfortunately leaves a lot of interesting
parsing up to the client) or something more like a dictionary or
"SwiftResponse" that as described in the spec has properties for getting at
interesting values - and most importantly allow for future additive changes.

It sounds like you're on the right track trying to make clients return a
single "value" (or a dict or something) - I'm tertiarily curious with what
you come up.
