          default: throw new Error('The actual error code was "'+e.code+'" - but it should have been "E_VALIDATION": the rolled-up validation error.  This is so that errors from the public `.validate()` are consistent with errors exposed when creating or updating records (i.e. when multiple values are being set at the same time.)  Here is the error that was actually received:\n```\n' +e.stack+'\n```');
