The gitweb link takes me to a diff of the whole change, while in the
gitiles case I need one more additional click to the "diff" text to get
there. Would it be possible to keep showing the diff by default?

It's a tiny thing, but if you review code a lot, this saves a lot of
time.

A second point: gitweb supports searching by name, e.g.
<https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/gitweb?p=core.git&a=search&st=author&s=caolan>.
Does gitiles support something like this, or from now on one must clone
the repo to be able to do queries like this?

Thanks,

Miklos
