Thanks for sharing this code! I was needing something like this, but your code doesn't take into account preserving the error keys since your iterator is using the numeric index as the key. I created a more robust solution based on your original code: https://gist.github.com/woodent/9004667.

@wpscholar, your link doesn't lead anywhere. I guess it should be that one.

For anyone hitting this page, as of WordPress 5.6 WP_Error allows merging objects together. See https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/38777
