All queries are limited to 20 results regardless of limit parameter

What are you expecting?

[Richard Harding (rharding)]

Jay, this is a bug on charmworld, the old API. It's broken compared to the new one.

[Brad Crittenden (bac)]

The use of limit is unintuitive, confusing, and a bit silly.

The actual limit used is the minimum of the limit specified or the default limit of 20. This is true *unless* you specify you want all charms or bundles. For instance, a query of this form respects the provided limit:

https://manage.jujucharms.com/api/3/search?text=charms&limit=200

Likewise for bundles:

https://manage.jujucharms.com/api/3/search?text=bundles&limit=60

However, if you do not request all charms or bundles, say you search for a specific one, then the default limit is used, e.g.

https://manage.jujucharms.com/api/3/search?text=bundles:mysql&limit=60 returns 20.

Using the two forms shown above is currently the only work-around.
