Incorrect handling of revert flag in pallet-contracts query

[xermicus]

I'm not too familiar with polkadot-js, but I'd assume that this is not going to work for Solang contracts. By my understaing, you're assuming that the execution output type is always the same, regardless whether the contract did revert or not right? Solidity contracts unfortunately can't really do this; Solidity doesn't know about Result and even if it would, the output could be empty (where Solidity doesn't know about the Option type neither), or the output could be of a type that isn't present in the metadata (due to Solidity bubbling up uncaught errors).

Seems that I incorrectly assumed that this is already standardized semantics of the contract metadata. But it is not and still up to debate.

For that reason I will close this ticket for now.
