Description
As a client with generated node.js idls, when I receive data from a server that isn't what the idl expects, then an exception is thrown that is swallowed by the connection (it doesn't even get emitted and handled by the connection object). This causes the client's process to crash and clients upstream to hang as a result. What is desired is to catch this exception and return it in the callback as an error so that the client can handle the exception. Examples to come.
Example stacktrace:
```
