   > @steffenrost can you clarify what the connection to #4388 is?

   @rabbah yes that is the idea, in case of #4388 we only saw  that the cloudant view call was failing with 400 (bad request) in the log but had no indication about the root cause, to find out we had to reproduce the issue locally and in addition add temporary log statements. So we think it is better to have detailed error information already in the log if possible (eg `org.scalatest.exceptions.TestFailedException: The future returned an exception of type: java.lang.Exception, with message: Unexpected http response code: 400 Bad Request (error: "query_parse_error", reason: "Limit is too large, must not exceed 268435456")` instead of finding out after the fact. End user in this sense would be us managing/maintain the cloud service.
