500 Error with malformed POST

[amy-langley]

I was trying to create a new project_preferences resource but made an error in formatting my POST. This resulted in a 500 error instead of something a little cleaner, so @zwolf suggested I file an issue.

I had attempted to imitate the response from the server by posting something like { "project_preferences": [ { my object here } ] } but the square brackets were unnecessary. The API correctly rejected them but it'd be nice to get a more descriptive error.
