 As of now, Onionoo has a "maintenance mode" that I'm planning to use very
 rarely.  But sometimes it's necessary to shut down Onionoo to support new
 features or fix bugs.  During this time, Onionoo responds to all requests
 with a 503 Service Unavailable status code.  Atlas should respect this
 code and display a different warning than:

 "Backend error! The backend server replied with an error to your query.
 This probably means that you did not properly format your query. If your
 query was properly formatted it may mean that there is an issue with your
 browser/add-ons. Please report which browser/addons/etc. you're using to
 the bug tracker."

 How about this warning?

 "Backend temporarily unavailable! The backend server is temporarily
 unavailable. If this issue persists for more than a few hours, please
 report it using the <a
 href="https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/newticket?component=Atlas";>bug
 tracker</a>."
