For example

For example search results for commit search ('author', 'committer' and 'commit' searches have link to 'commit' view. Pickaxe has link to 'commitdiff' view. Grep search would have link(s) to blob views. In those views the 's' (searchtext) parameter could be passed, and matched fragment should be somehow higlighted, e.g. using background color to not interfere with syntax highlighting.
