Sorry, I should've actually checked the commit message rather than just
looking at the code to understand your motivation for that change. 

I think the bug here is that we shouldn't be returning a tuple for
WERRORs. If we really want to avoid the error lookup for the user I
think we should add a WERROR equivalent object in Python (perhaps
descending from Exception?). 

Cheers,
