 Description  « Hide
Error messages frequently fail to provide any information, which is the whole point of displaying one. For example, upon login, one might see:

[14:05] Gesture is missing from database.
[14:05] Gesture is missing from database.

If you happen to have a few dozen active gestures, this is not helpful. A useful error report would instead say something like this:

[14:05] Gesture "/clap" is missing from database.
[14:05] Gesture "yay" is missing from database.

Then one could at least figure out what gestures are generating the errors and fix or deactivate them, rather than getting the same useless error message on every login that doesn't even say what the error is about.

Dupe of VWR-333, I believe this has been fixed in 1.19.0 also.

Well, you're wrong about this being a dupe of VWR-333, but you're right about it being fixed in 1.19.0 (unlike VWR-333, which is still occuring).

No actually this was the fix for VWR-333 until the actual root cause can be determined and fixed.
