#280: Fault error message on plugin submission page

 I recently attempted to submit a plugin for review at
 http://wordpress.org/plugins/add/ with the word "WordPress" in the title.
 I kept receiving the following error message, even though the plugin name
 was not already taken (confirmed at http://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/):

 "That name already exists. Please choose another name."

 I later learned that "WordPress" is a forbidden word for most plugin
 submission titles - the error message should indicate that this is the
 issue.
