MCP server to be able to return custom http codes

Please do a quick search on GitHub issues first, the feature you are about to request might have already been requested.

I am writing a custom MCP server. I am using an existing HttpServletStatelessServerTransport but mine is a stateful server with multiple pods. But since I do not have control on the session Id generation & validation & moreover, the validation in stateful transport is based on memory, I have chosen a stateless transport. But now on validating the sessionId in every MCP request, I want to be able to return an 404, if session id is not found or return 500 or other status codes. But I do not have this control now.

I was looking if there is a way in HttpServletStatelessServerTransport by which the MCP Error message can be passed by the McpStatelessServerHandler in the exception thrown by it

Current Behavior
In the below code, we can see that even if handleRequest method of McpStatelessServerHandler throws IllegalArgumentException, a customized error message cannot be returned to the client.

			logger.error("Failed to deserialize message: {}", e.getMessage());
			this.responseError(response, HttpServletResponse.SC_BAD_REQUEST, new McpError("Invalid message format"));
		}
		catch (Exception e) {
			logger.error("Unexpected error handling message: {}", e.getMessage());
			this.responseError(response, HttpServletResponse.SC_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR,
					new McpError("Unexpected error: " + e.getMessage()));
		}```

**Context**

The only work around is to find the MCP request method before calling the transport's service method and return appropriate http code with required message. This is not ideal though

Start with HttpServletStatelessServerTransport and McpStatelessServerHandler, especially handleRequest and the transport's service method. Trace how exceptions reach responseError and how the current workaround inspects the MCP request method before calling the transport. Done means handler failures can return a caller-selected HTTP status and MCP error message, including session-validation failures.
