Details

It would be nice if a search with only one result is treated as a direct search if &redirect=true. Example: https://dxr.allizom.org/mozilla-central/search?q=%22interface+nsISupports+%22+ext%3Aidl+-path%3Adist returns only one result. expected: jump directly to the result as we do currently for direct searchers.
After the objdir was added to the index, <filename>:1 no longer jumps directly to the file for files that are simply copied over to the objdir - because there are always at least two results. Fixing this bug would allow me to do "<blah> -path:objdir" as a workaround.

I'll take this bug now, though it might not land until after path promotion (https://github.com/mozilla/dxr/pull/443) since there will be some overlap, e.g. do path results count? (I'm leaning toward no).
Dup of bug 1072920?
Yep!
