<font size=3>I think that we have discussed this and other similar
attributes before and <br>
concluded that the wording needed to be that the error for a bad syntax
type <br>
was "client-error-bad-request" and thus different from
the error for a <br>
value with the correct syntax type but too long The error for the second
<br>
case is 'client-error-request-value-too-long'.<br>

'client-error-request-value-too-long'? Intuitively, that doesn't
seem right, since the request is not too long.<br>
