When loading URDF models that fail to parse, gz-physics sometimes produces cryptic error messages that don't help users identify the root cause.
Problem
Error messages like Failed to load model without specific details about:
- Which URDF element caused the failure
- Line number or element path in the URDF
- Whether it's a link, joint, collision, or visual element
Suggested Improvement
Enhance error reporting to include:
- The specific URDF element name/path that failed
- A brief hint about what might be wrong
- Line/column references where applicable
This would significantly reduce debugging time for users working with robot models in Gazebo. Happy to contribute if this is a welcome improvement.
