This request is unclear. The users can check the existence of such terms themselves (e.g. by checking either the categories or unique values for an obs
column) before issuing the query. Doing this static check as part of the API will incur into a performance hit and is not how the vast majority of the query systems work (including SQL).
Visibility of system status is an important usability heuristic. We should communicate to users if the system deviates from their intention.
