There are a number of instances where obscure errors are presented to the user where it is unclear what the issue was and how the user could correct it. EG:
When creating a new label with missing fields, an error is just shown saying "invalid input"
When creating a new account without a description (why would I want to add a description for my own account when creating it?) a 500 error is seen
When creating a new account with a weak password, just "invalid password" is shown
Related: It should be made clear when fields are required when it isn't obvious, and if a particular format is required (eg specific password validation rules) that should be given up front.
Additionally, errors should ideally be shown directly next to fields they're related to, if applicable
