  # Module to support validation and errors with Active Resource objects. The module overrides
  # Base#save to rescue ActiveResource::ResourceInvalid exceptions and parse the errors returned 
  # in the web service response. The module also adds an +errors+ collection that mimics the interface 
  # of the errors provided by ActiveRecord::Errors.
  #
  # ==== Example
  #
  # Consider a Person resource on the server requiring both a +first_name+ and a +last_name+ with a 
  # <tt>validates_presence_of :first_name, :last_name</tt> declaration in the model:
  #
  #   person = Person.new(:first_name => "Jim", :last_name => "")
  #   person.save                   # => false (server returns an HTTP 422 status code and errors)
  #   person.valid?                 # => false
  #   person.errors.empty?          # => false
  #   person.errors.count           # => 1
  #   person.errors.full_messages   # => ["Last name can't be empty"]
  #   person.errors.on(:last_name)  # => "can't be empty"
  #   person.last_name = "Halpert"  
  #   person.save                   # => true (and person is now saved to the remote service)
  #
