Currently, developers using Cloud Endpoint to create their libraries can only use HTTP codes or messages to identify exceptions sent by Cloud Endpoints methods.

HTTP codes have very limited semantics, and messages are supposed to be user oriented (even internationalized), so they are not good identifiers.

Google APIs provide a "reason" field, that can be used to easily identify error type.
This feature should be added to the Cloud Endpoints, maybe with new constructors in com.google.api.server.spi.ServiceException.

This is not only useful for IP addresses, but also for many other resources. I understand that names are currently used as identifiers, so this request is probably not trivial to implement. Maybe distinguishing between a (numeric, automatically generated) identifier and a (textual) label is the way to go?
