pressing GO should start action if results are unambiguous (or perhaps start top action)

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I see 2 possible improvements.

1. Pressing GO should act on results if unambiguous. Enter G R E ... and
Contact Greg shows up. Pressing GO should dial him. It is faster than
moving finger up to result list and more consistent with the other search
types.

2. Other possibility is launching top result even if many results are
shown. I think this is less favorable. The top result may not be the one
you want and you hit GO anyway and call someone unintended.

I don't know about this. It may work for contacts. But the GO button should 
always do
the same thing. 

My problem: for example type in "google.com" and hit GO. Right now it opens the
browser and goes to google.com. But if the first search result is 
"google.com/news"
and you automatically start the first search result by pressing GO, then how do 
you
open the site "google.com"? Same problem if the first search result is also the 
only
search result. 
QuickGold could do it with the phone keyboard active, since this keyboard is
completely different from the rest and right no doesn't have a GO button (could 
be
labeled DIAL).

Fixed this. Both (1) and (2) are taken care of. I take care of Mike's problem as
well, since I check for matching URLs etc. BEFORE I do this. So, in the last 
case
when none of my checks have matched AND if there is still a matching result, I 
will
invoke it. :)

All coming in the new version.. 1.3
