Option To Return Errors As JSON

Hi, When using the `--output json` I would expect the errors to be returned as JSON just like the success output. However, the output for errors seems to continue to be a flat string. It would be helpful from a scripting perspective to have the output as JSON when requested so we can include better logic in our scripts when errors occur. For example: ``` { "code": "409", "message": "The cluster name already exists" } ``` Please let me know if you need more information about the request. Thanks,
