I'd rather see this than actual rest or the more popular use the bits of rest that are convenient.

you'd rather have no responses following a standard rather than only some doing that? No, thanks.

Yes I'd rather have a self defined standard that accurately covers the scope of an application and it's use cases than stretch an old standard design for basic hierarchical text docs to work for a modern application.

Right? REST is the transport, if you bend it to convey general/application errors it's probably going to get bent out of shape eventually in a way that's hard to clean up

The people that decide which rules are important or not when designing a "REST" api are generally insufferable as well.
