The add-function docstring says:

    Add a piece of advice on the function stored at PLACE.
    FUNCTION describes the code to add.  WHERE describes where to add it.
    WHERE can be explained by showing the resulting new function, as the
    result of combining FUNCTION and the previous value of PLACE, which we
    call OLDFUN here:
    `:before'	(lambda (&rest r) (apply FUNCTION r) (apply OLDFUN r))
    `:after'	(lambda (&rest r) (prog1 (apply OLDFUN r) (apply FUNCTION r)))
    `:around'	(lambda (&rest r) (apply FUNCTION OLDFUN r))

so I think Iʼd agree with your expectations. Of course, you could use
:around and call 'next-error' yourself in your function (untested).
