Comment (by cboos):
What I meant is that without your patch, Trac already behaves like this:
the ! will negate the wiki syntax, and no link will be created, therefore
`redir` will be `None`... The optimization you do is to simply by-pass the
Wiki formatting when there's a leading "!". Why not, I'm OK with that.
But again, I think that this ticket is not about using the "!",
rather with the newcomer's surprise when searching for something
and ending up with a create wiki page, as david.tulloh illustrated
it above (hm... no `comment:` links on p.e.c yet :( ).
Quick jumps are pretty useful, so I don't see the point of disabling
that feature entirely just to workaround the above problem, which is
only a minor inconvenience.
What has been proposed so far:
1. Doing a search if the target of the quickjump is known as missing
(option which doesn't seem to be popular... ok)
2. Disabling the quickjump on the search page, but keeping it when
the search is triggered from the top search box
In addition, I'd like to propose a variation on 2:
3. On the search page, retrieve the link given by the quickjump,
but ''don't'' redirect to it, rather present a link to it
before the search results, which will be gathered regardless
of the `redir` value.
The quickjump toplevel search box behaves as usual.
What do you think?
