---------------------------------+--------------------------
The discussion in #21366 made it clear that qualified search terms aren't
as good as the regular parameters.
* They are a weak duplicate of functionality offered by the regular
parameters.
* There is no support for spaces unlike the regular parameters.
* Not all parameters are supported as qualified search terms.
* It places too much functionality into one parameter (look at the size of
the search parameter paragraph compared to the other parameters at
https://onionoo.torproject.org/#methods).
FWICT the regular parameters offer more functionality than the qualified
search terms so the later can safely be deprecated without loss of
functionality.
