Comment:

 So, it's true that "limit" is not a valid qualified search term. Here's
 the relevant specification part:

   Qualified search terms have the form "key:value" (without double quotes)
 with "key" being one of the parameters listed here '''except for "search",
 "fingerprint", "order", "limit", "offset", and "fields",''' and "value"
 being the string that will internally be passed to that parameter.

 Regarding the stated use case, how about you simply omit the "limit"
 parameter and risk receiving thousands of documents back? We're in a much
 better position today to handle the load than we were a few years back.

 But let's also discuss whether we want to accept the "limit" parameter as
 qualified search term (and the other 5 that are currently disallowed).
 Basically, we'd provide two different interfaces: separate parameters and
 a single parameter. I see how the latter would be easier to use for
 applications like Relay Search.

 Temporarily re-opening until we're clear what we want here.
