See all reviews by a particular reviewer

[GoogleCodeExporter]

As a user I would like to be able to view all submitted reviews by a given 
reviewer, so that, for example, if I really trust Kumar's taste in music, I can 
play something based on what he likes.

I assumed that filtering by user name when I search would allow for this, but 
it turns out that it yields no results unless I enter text to search for. So, 
if I know that Kumar reviewed a certain album, I can search for the artist and 
make sure that it only brings up what Kumar has reviewed. But if I simply want 
to see Kumar's collected review efforts, there is no good way to do so at 
present.

the fix for this is probably as simple as allowing an empty search result *if* 
the "by reviewer" box is checked

• Added labels: Priority-High
• Removed labels: Priority-Medium

Unfortunately, it's not that simple. A search works by first finding all 
artists, albums, and tracks that match the query string. Then the results are 
manually filtered for reviewed albums (or associated albums) if the Reviewed 
button was checked. The solution: If no query string is provided but the 
Reviewed button was checked, then the search/query should be done in the same 
way as in the reviews list.

I'll take this. :)

Or, easier, just redirect to the reviews page. Done.
