Description
Gitpod's dashboard 404 redirects to the www.gitpod.io default 404 which is provided by Netlify. It would be better to host a 404 "not found" page in the dashboard which preserves the login context in the top-navigation bar when a user is already logged in.
to reproduce
- login to gitpod.io
- open https://gitpod.io/t/team-unknown

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue at https://gitpod.io/t/team-unknown while logged in and trace the dashboard's 404 handling. Done means the dashboard serves its own not-found page instead of the Netlify page and preserves the logged-in top-navigation context.
