[wp-xmlrpc] APP and XMLRPC Ticket questions

Hi Peter -

MarsEdit has no dependency on the text-based failure messages.

Would wp_die mean an HTML formatted failure?   I think it would be  
even better if the APP and XMLRPC endpoints could fail with XML  
formatted failures. This would automatically allow for error  
presentation in MarsEdit, and I suspect would do the same for other  
clients.
