Notifying user of issues in post-save hook

[Jake Battle]

I've written a simple post-save hook to back up the file to S3. If the update fails, is there a supported way to notify the user in the interface? (I don't want to rely on the user watching the logs). 

I'm not picky about what the notification would look like - I just want to alert the user to the fact that the save (partially) failed so the user can fix whatever is wrong.

I'm using a simple post_save_hook but I'm willing to rework this using the Content Manager API or install extensions if those make this possible.

thanks!

Hi Jake,

With notebook 5.0 (soon! We're at RC2 now), if your hook raises an exception, it should display a notification to the user (though it will say that save failed, which isn't quite true). Here's the PR that added that:
