Comment (by brade):

 Replying to [comment:63 gk]:

 The JSON API spec says that `errors` must be an array but `data` does not
 have to be an array (see http://jsonapi.org/format/#document-top-level).
 Isis implemented the `data` payload as an array, but we wanted to be
 robust and allow it to be an object (we can remove that code if you want
 us to do so; for a long time we did not have a server to talk to ;)

 > 12) Spec says 'error', yet we check for `response.errors`, typo?

 That was a typo in the spec which Isis has fixed.

 We will fix this.

 contains:

 > Do you mean "image" here instead of "captchaImage"? I looked at the spec
 and thought this was another instance of the spec you linked to being
 outdated but then I saw `image` in `_parseFetchResponse()`. If so, could
 you order the attributes in the comment lines: `transport`, `image`, and
 `challenge` as outlined in the spec?

 Our code actually transforms `image` in the Moat response to
 `captchaImage` in the JS object that is created and returned. It was
 clearer to us to use a more descriptive name.  We will reorder the
 property names in the comment.

 This was a spec change that came about during some conversations we had
 with Isis. The comment we have is correct based on the current spec.
