 In theory, starting with fresh data shouldn't have been necessary.
 Redeploying the .war or maybe even restarting Tomcat should be sufficient.
 Hmm.

 True, we should log those things.

 True.

 Indeed.

 However, there's still a problem with my branch: Tomcat interprets `+` in
 parameter values as space.  When I fetch the following URL either with
 curl or Firefox, the servlet sees the following search terms.

 {{{
 http://localhost:8080/onionoo/summary?search=S+1drLUSi/Sq+vGxcQlIjauTLDg

 Search terms: [S, 1drLUSi/Sq, vGxcQlIjauTLDg]
 }}}

 Maybe embedded Jetty doesn't do that?  Or maybe there's a fix to tell
 Tomcat not to interpret `+` as space?  Or maybe we should tell Onionoo
 clients to escape/substitute the `+` character in base64 searches (ugh)?
