Bug Description

Calls like launchpad.hwdb.devices(bus='PCI', vendor_id='MSI') lead to a 500 error, because the parameters vendor_id and product_id must be in a defined format for the buses USB, PCI and SCSI. Calls with invalid parameters as in the example above should not lead to an internal server error, Instead, 400 or perhaps 404 should be returned.

Wouldn't an 'Invalid Input' error be more appropriate than 404?

Perhaps. Do we have a sort of a policy what should returned for API
requests with parameters that are invalid in a specific context?
