Description

TokeResource currently responds to failed requests to renew or revoke a token with a boolean indicator and an error message. Any client behavior based on the nature of the failure must currently depend on the error message content, which is not robust.

These error responses should also include one of a well-defined set of error codes, on which clients can reliably depend to control their behavior upon receiving such responses.
