We could also respect maxRichResults only if it has been changed, so if it's at the default value we show 8, if changed we adapt to its value (and assume the user knows what he's doing). We should likely also put a limit to maxRichResults, just crop it to 24 (I know some users have it set higher, but there's performance reasons for which we don't want to go that high).
