Search field

In the search field on the main page, there is a limited number of hits that come up when searching. However, you do not receive any notification about this, so if you are not aware of this, it will look like what you are looking for does not exist. For example, if we search for "lye", we do not get any hits on the correct substance, even if it is given as a synonym.
Is it possible to add an alert that says the keyword has too many hits to display?
