I think raising the Fault on the server is the correct thing to do for
python servers. The server xmlrpclib frameworks seem to trap unhandled
exceptions and turn them into Faults.

I've just been looking at a Delphi client and there I see code that
looks like


 if rtn.IsError then
    begin
      showmessage('Error:' + rtn.GetErrorString);
      result := false;
      exit;
    end;

and this pops up a message box and shows the Fault message.
