The kind of errors I'm most interested in are ones that require user
intervention.  Errors that the user can't do anything about (e.g.
can't find server), I can just through up the error.  But for errors
like source mismatch, the error is recoverable, but unless I can
especially handle the error, the user won't be able to recover.

So source mismatch, and whatever requires the --force flag.  I'm not
clear on when that is needed.
