Currently in tilelive and tilelive API-implementing modules an error with message Tileset does not exist (and relatedly, Tile does not exist, Grid does not exist) often get special treatment.

Look into adding a code attribute or so that makes checking for these errors less freaky.

Make implicit API expectation implicit
6bf7e6c 
I was bitten by issue mapbox#42 when trying to implement a tilelive TileSource that used vector tiles, which by their nature are sparse. (My backend would faithfully emit error messages for missing tiles, but with a different wording which med tilelive crash out rather than just skip the tile.) Until the actual issue is resolved (which would mean rewriting all tilelive implementations, I guess) it should be made an explicit part or the API doc.
