Inconsistent rendering of errors in List components

What you were expecting:

When the dataProvider.getList() call fails, components rendering a list should render something meaningful and consistent.

What happened instead:

• For fetcher components
  • <List> renders the error messages twice (once in the notification, once in the <Error> component), and if the content component renders it, too, that's three times
  • <ReferenceManyField> renders the notification (no error component)
• For content components
  • <Datagrid> and <SimpleList> render <ListNoResults>, which is misleading
  • <SingleFieldList> fails.

Besides, in the <List> component, it is not possible to override / hide the <Error> render (cf https://github.com/marmelab/react-admin/issues/8528#issuecomment-1369117499).

Steps to reproduce:

Check the Storybook for List / Error in Fetch : https://react-admin-storybook.vercel.app/?path=/story/ra-ui-materialui-list-list--error-in-fetch

Other information:

Which component should handle the error case? In my opinion, just like for the loading case, it's the content components' responsibility (<Datagrid>, <SimpleList>, etc), not the fetcher component (<List>, etc). But I'm open to discussion on this one.

Environment

• React-admin version: 4.x
• Last version that did not exhibit the issue (if applicable): n/a
• React version: 17
• Browser: Chrome

Open the Storybook “List / Error in Fetch” story and reproduce the failures across List, ReferenceManyField, Datagrid, SimpleList, and SingleFieldList. Review the issue’s proposed responsibility split, then define and validate a consistent, non-duplicated error state with an overridable List error render; the issue needs a decided behavior before implementation can be considered done.
