[jira] Commented: (SLING-273) ujax post servlet aborts processing if item names are invalid

["Bertrand Delacretaz (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-273?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12572847#action_12572847 ] 

Bertrand Delacretaz commented on SLING-273:
-------------------------------------------

Wouldn't it be better to fail more loudly, with a 500 error?

My concern is that people might not check the detailed results in the HTML response to the POST, and might miss the problem.

Failing with a 500 and a descriptive enough error message (structured maybe) would be safer IMHO, but if you have a valid use case for your variant, I'm open to hear it.

> of course the value of the param is wrong. but imo it should ignore it (or log an error in the changelog) and continue processing.
