This would be a useful enhancement if it could be implemented.
For search results, have the following choices as an option.
show both direct and indirect translations
only show direct translations
only show indirect translations
Notes
You could leave the currently-used "direct and indirect translations showing" as the default, or perhaps only as the default for logged-in users, so things don't change for current members, unless they opt in.
Setting the default for non-logged-in visitors to be "only direct translations" might be less confusing for first-time and infrequent visitors, since they would not be seeing the indirect translations, which often don't match.
Being able to only show indirect translations would speed things up for those who are focusing on linking indirect translations, since they wouldn't be seeing direct translations.
Only showing direct translations would mean less scrolling for those not interested in seeing indirect translations, and thus, perhaps, provide a more pleasant experience.
Perhaps making this an option that could be permanently set in a member's settings would be something members would like.
