Perhaps MI FIFO cannot be very powerful as it relies on Bash return codes.
Using MI XMLRPC the real status code is 200, 500, 404... however it doens't 
provide too much information.

Perhaps a new protocol would be useful? I imagine a reply containing status 
code, warning lines, error lines... in a standar and parseable way.
