Enabl API to be queried such that it returns only the breach name
At present, searching the API returns all data about the breach including description and other meta data. For high volume API consumers, it would be preferable to return just the breach name. Meta data about the breach could then be retrieved in a single API query to the breach service. This would reduce the response size for each query by more than 90%.

This was completed a while ago but I neglected to update the idea here. See the API docs page: https://haveibeenpwned.com/API/v2#BreachesForAccount
Adding the ?truncateResponse=true query string returns just the name attribute of the breach, for example: https://haveibeenpwned.com/api/v2/breachedaccount/test@example.com?truncateResponse=true
