[kepler-dev] Problem with data searches

[Rod Spears]

The issue is whether to be notifed if any of the searches of mulitple 
Digir resources have returned an error.

The $64K question: If the a search returns "some" results will the user 
assume they got "all" the results???

Maybe the error msg should say something like: "Not all the resources 
were able to provide data at this time."

or
"Not all the resources were able to provide data. Trying later may 
produce additional results."

or
"There was an error somewhere in the universe while attempting to 
provide the most basic results for your rather boring little workflow."
