Research direction

Start at etesync_dav/manage.py around add_etebase, where the reported login failure is raised, and trace how the Etebase login error is surfaced. The issue gives no test or expected replacement message; determine what server responses trigger this error and what wording would distinguish them before making a change.

etebase_python.Error: Temporary server error

Am I just reading the documentation wrong?
In any case, "Temporary server error" is a misleading error message.
