Description

We limit a search to 5 terms. If you search for 6, the sixth is silently removed on the client side. It would be good to show a notification to the user about the limit.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Implement a user notification dialog when the search query exceeds the 5 term limit. Currently the sixth term is silently removed. Add logic to detect the limit and display a dialog or snackbar to inform the user.
