[Nmc-wg] Mappings: old result codes -> new result codes

Hi Roman/All;

Some comments on the proposal:

"Wrong structure of a request":

Like Aaron, I think I am having a hard time with some of these as being 
a purely 'structural' issue.  For instance 'error.ls.data_trigger' - I 
would assert there is some context to be known about the content of the 
rest of the message before calling this structural issue (for instance 
if there was a data/metadata pair already).

I think most of these are right, but we should be careful with the 
context before calling all of them a pure xml structure violation.

"EventType in a request is not supported":

This also seems more context sensitive to me.

"Request is not supported":

I think 'message type unsupported' is different than 'no message type 
specified'

"Elements of a request are not supported"

I think we may need to be a bit more clear in the message.  Instead of 
'wrong XXX' we may want to say 'unexpected XXX element' or something 
similar.  This will clear up of the content is wrong or the element is 
wrong.

Thanks;

-jason
