This is easy to do in Zope 3. You just provide an XML-RPC view for your 
exception that returns the things you want.
Different exceptions can have different views.
The same exception can have a different view for plain browser-oriented 
HTTP, for FTP, and for XML-RPC.


If the "views" part of the Zope 3 component architecture gets 
back-ported to Zope 2, then you'll be able to use this with Zope 2.

Zope 3 has had only one alpha release, and is still undergoing a lot of 
change and further development. The mailing list for discussing it is 
zope3-dev@zope.org.
