Hi Joris. This is a wonderlful idea. I never came across such a document, but assembaling it sounds very good.
What do you think about organizing the work of collecting (by R members and maybe your students) the error massages and code into some wiki page? (maybe on the R wiki) It could be a great work to give to students (go around the mailing list, search for "i got this error massage", and write what the code-problem-solution was).
