Description

An API that I am consuming returns type *models.Problem on error.

The generated code tries to map this to the expected response type and returns an error as this is not possible. There is currently no way to get the response as *models.Problem. I believe there should be.

Research direction

The issue names no file, test, or entry point. Start by tracing how generated Go code maps an error response to its expected response type, then determine how a raw *models.Problem or interface{} response can be exposed; done means the API consumer can retrieve that error response without a mapping failure.
