Comment (by karsten):

 Well, the idea of using (double) quotes for qualified search terms
 containing spaces would work.  I'm just not sure how intuitive that would
 be.  And somebody would have to build it. :)

 Another option would be that Atlas provides an extended search of some
 kind where it has inputs for other parameters than Onionoo's `search`
 parameter.  For example, there could be a contact input field, and Atlas
 would simply pass anything in that field to Onionoo's `contact` parameter,
 including contained spaces.  That would still leave qualified search term
 as shortcut for pro users with almost the same functionality (except for
 this case and maybe a few others).  But the more advanced users would go
 to that extended search and see what they can search for, rather than
 having to remember what qualified search terms exist.  (Somebody would
 have to build this as well.)
