Hmm... I guess if payload is not a string at all because download
failed, then indeed we have other indications of the problem and
emitting a message would be redundant (and it's a normal occurrence
anyway), but is it really "normal business" for payload to be
a non-base64 string?  I thought this would indicate some really
unexpected circumstance.
