This is what we get back from the server, so no, we can't provide a better message to the user or fail more gracefully.

I noticed when importing addresses that Turba just displays a DB error message and aborts the import if one of the fields in the import is too big for the field as defined in turba/config/attributes.php. It would be great if it could catch those errors (and display notification messages) and continue with the rest of the import. Right now the DB error just says "There was an error importing the data: DB Error: invalid", which doesn't help the user to identify what the problem is with their import data.
