Comment:

 #8667 is related.

 Relay Search indeed doesn't do any validation of the query before sending
 it. We could return a JSON document along with 400 error codes, to allow
 Onionoo to provide a more detailed message back to the user, but better
 error messages help too.

 It's a bit upsetting that the same error message is in multiple files, I
 should learn more about the template language and see if we can use
 includes.
