Well, not all potential overload is DNS related overload. There are a 
bunch of different criteria for emitting a general overload warning.
Onionoo and this relay search have a hard time differentiating between 
DNS related (general) overload and other (general) overload. Thus, I 
don't think this change is easily to make.

I think the best option here is to upgrade swiftly to 0.4.6.9/0.4.7.3-alpha.

That said, we should update our documentation accordingly. I've filed a 
ticket for that.[1]
