yesss, in freerouter, it is there....

as you can see here:
https://github.com/mc36/freeRouter/blob/e24547fe9ec8057134c551ad23b312bb6bb8d993/src/net/freertr/serv/servP4lang.java#L2032
it's a free-text that logged as is, without any further processing...
one approach could be that in the exception catcher, you have the
prepared entry and the grpc response right at hand, you can send
out.println("dataplane-say entry "+entry.toString()+" failed to program with 
"+exception.toString());
but it's completely up to you to choose the format...
