Description

I'm using this package to implement a UI to create a keystore via keytool. If the creation command fails I'd like to return the error output to the UI (currently I display an error message in VS Code and show it in output).

I'm not sure if this is currently achievable using the PerformFinishResponse object maybe via the templates or returnObject properties?

Research direction

Start by reading the performFinish entry point and the PerformFinishResponse object, especially how templates and returnObject are handled. Reproduce a failed keytool creation and trace whether its error output reaches the UI; done means the failure text is available for display in the VS Code UI.
