Thanks, I figured it out in the end and ended up with:
Response r = Response.ok("Error:" + ex.getMessage()).status(501).build();
throw new WebApplicationException(r);
I should probably wrap it in xml or something, but this works for now.
Of course, in the example above, I could also just wrap the original
exception in WebApplicationException instead of building a response, but
I'm planning to use this for other purposes as well.
