RegistrarSettingsAction is a JSON in / JSON out endpoint, meaning the reply is consumed as JSON.
The current state is that if an error occurs, there are two possible replies:
- a JSON error reply is sent out, or
- a 402 HTML reply is sent out with the exception.getMessage()
The difference is only - do we actively catch the exception to translate it to JSON or not.
This fix catches ALL exceptions and translates them to JSON format. Note that there's no security change by giving the getMessage in the JSON reply since we were returning that anyway (in the HTML).
In addition - changed the "gaeUserId" to "user.getEmail" as the identifier, since it's clearer to the users who see that error - and I do want to transition to a more "email identifier" way of checking access (since that's what users put in the registrar contact info)
This too isn't leaking new information because
- the initial HTML page load already gives the user's email, and
- the logs already log the user's email for every request
