Cleaner display of unhandled errors (formatting returned JSON into tables) #4560

It might be a good idea to display "unhandled" errors in a cleaner way, rather than directly showing the end use the JSON object returned. Should we format returned JSON into simple HTML tables of key-value pairs? Nested objects could be displayed in a sub-table, and so on.

Nested objects could also be displayed as ... and a View Full Response button could reveal the JSON response in a copy/paste-able input field.

We never display JSON returned errors directly. If that is displayed, it must be a bug...

But I love the "View Full response" idea, it will be really helpful to provide support.
