SharePoint 2007 error message

I got bombarded with emails and my phone started buzzing this morning with users complaining they can’t update docs on the intranet or upload new ones. Everyone was getting a very simple and “informative” message:
Error
Unable to complete this operation. Please contact your administrator.
It turned out to be the SQL (2005) Server was out of disk space (bloody log files!). Anyway, fixed easily by freeing some disk space but was really surprised by guys in Microsoft. How hard can it be to display a message “disk full” or similar?
