Comment (by cypherpunks):

 Oh this is bad. So atlas will never support whitespace?

 what if we introduce a special new atlas-level qualifier in which the
 users says "I want to search for contact, yes contact only"

 lets say "contactonly:foo bar" and that gets mapped to
 ​https://onionoo.torproject.org/summary?contact=...

 What do you think?
 (btw: thanks for the quick feedback so far!)
