Ah, yes, now you mention it I have remembered the relevant bit of how
UPDATE is designed: the idea is that update processing can't cause an
error response (except for internal server failures unrelated to the
contents of the zone or the update message); all errors come from
processing prerequisites, permissions, and the update prescan phase.
So if you want errors from an UPDATE you have to ask for them in the
prerequisites.
