Handling empty search results
I think we need a plan to handle empty search results.
Currently the search results will show an empty table if no results are found, and detailed results will show the attribute names with blank values. Perhaps we should have a better way of handling when nothing is found. Could it be possible to redirect to another page which says "We're sorry. X was not found"? Any other ideas.
Discuss on the whiteboard.

Jeg foreslår å vise en melding på søkesiden hvis den ikke finner noe - siden performSearch kalles fra DoSearchAction bør det være greit å sjekke det med en gang? Olav
Showing a message when nothing is found has been implemented for detailed results.
A similar message is shown instead of the list of results, when no results have been found.
