Description
As the save methods are currently architected, errors are not returned and are therefore unusable outside of the normal save method. It would be useful to have a way of retrieving these errors for use outside of this default setup.
For example, when working on the force-2fa functionality I have a standalone takeover view that uses AJAX to submit the settings and re-load to a normal view once submitted. the problem is that I have no useful information coming back from the save methods so I have to re-load the page whether saving was successful or not which is very confusing from a user's perspective.

Start by tracing the save methods and the standalone AJAX takeover view described in the issue. Determine how save failures and successes can be exposed to callers, then verify that the AJAX flow can distinguish them without reloading blindly.
