While implementation is trivial (from 'emacs-bzr/trunk/lisp/subr.el'):
(defun user-error (format &rest args)
(while t
(signal 'user-error (list (apply #'format format args)))))
I eval: (symbol-plist 'user-error) and get:
(error-conditions (user-error error) error-message "")
But I can't find a place which put 'error-conditions' to 'user-error' symbol.
Really this must be done, from 'signal' docs:
The argument ERROR-SYMBOL must be an "error symbol"--a symbol
bearing a property `error-conditions' whose value is a list of
condition names.
