The proposed responses are kind of funny, but I sort of like the idea of having a new status code range in development mode, or at least a standard set of headers for stuff like stack traces, etc.

A lot of times when I'm consuming a REST API that's in development, I'll get HTTP 500 responses and then I have to get with the API developer and repeat my requests so he/she can watch log files to see what went wrong. It would be great to be able to hand over more details in a reliable and consistent way.
