Error pointer always refers to the attributes

If I do a POST request with data containing a relationship:

{
    "data": {
        "type": "comment",
        "attributes": {
            "text": "comment text"
        },
        "relationships": {
            "author": {
                "data": {
                    "id": "1 (invalid id)",
                    "type": "author"
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

I got the following response:

{
    "errors": [{
        "status": "400",
        "source": {"pointer": "/data/attributes/author"}, 
        "detail": "Error message"
    }]
}

But would rather expect the following response:

{
    "errors": [{
        "status": "400",
        "source": {"pointer": "/data/relationships/author"}, 
        "detail": "Error message"
    }]
}

So the two responses are different when it comes to source/pointer. Which version is the proper one? According to the specs the pointer should point to the associated entity in the request document.
