Reflecting thread http://groups.google.com/group/opensocial-and-gadgets-spec/browse_thread/thread/b5e67eee48a5bb8a

core-api spec 2.5 still references REST-Response payload as XML as many OS endpoints now return JSON. The suggestion is to update section 2.1.2.1 with the following:

REST-Response-Payload = Return-Object / (<"> "error" <"> ":" RPC-Error)

Despite its name RPC-error definition suits actually quite well application-level errors in json with rest as well. Return-object already includes "entry": and the like for collections etc so it may not need an additional encapsulation.

This is also inline with current Shindig implementation.
