I've poked around a bit, but I don't see an HTTP status code for when a request's succeeds, but there is an error after the "point of no return".
e.g., Say you process a request, its committed to the database, but while returning the result you run of memory, or encounter a NPE, or what have you. It would have been a 200 response, but now, internally, you aren't able to return the proper, well-formed response.
202 Accepted doesn't seem to fit since we've already processed the request.
What status code means "Success, but errors"? Does one even exist?
