Description

Antonio Eggberg reports: "I accidentally typed a wrong query i.e. "filedname:" and then press the search button .. as usual I received a 400 'bad request' no problem. but i couldn't hit the back button to go back the cookie won't let me

I had to clean my cookie to get back to the front page.. just a tiny bug "

The issue is that flare puts constraints into session scope and each page view is querying Solr (with a bogus query in this case). Clearing session is the only way currently to alleviate this issue, which can be done by visiting /browse/clear
