PayPal Pro errors

When attempting to check out with PayPal Pro after entering incorrect info (e.g. incorrect credit card, incorrect billing address, others?), the only error listed is a single error message that says, "The payment plugin failed." This is not very helpful to the user. >:(
To make matters worse, the debug log does not get updated with this error, so a semi-sophisticated admin can't help the user.  :-\
The order list is not updated. I can understand this.

Is there another plugin available that is more helpful in error conditions?

Thanks.

In Joomla administration > Extensions > Manage, what are the PayPal plugin version and author?

It seems to work if there are no errors, but any error conditions are handled poorly, as far as I can tell.

Perhaps Paypal API do not provide the informations ?
