canonical redirect isn't working for paged=1

[Denis-de-Bernardy]

title should be self-explanatory

[Denis-de-Bernardy]

paged=$too_much is also broken. it should return a 404 error, or maybe 301 redirect to the first page.

Might be appropriate to pile on or xref with #8948.

(In [12691]) Do proper canonical redirect for ?paged=1 or /page/1/. fixes #11696

I opened #11857 for paged=too_many

[miqrogroove]

This is going to cause redirects in empty categories :(

In other words, if I create a category with slug cat1 and put nothing in it, then we now have /category/cat1/page/1/ returning status 302 instead of 404. :(

Replying to miqrogroove:

That's what #11857 is about. Currently, if you visit /category/cat1/page/100000000 it'll return a status 200.

[miqrogroove]

If you visit /category/cat1/ it will return a status 200 also. Redirecting from one bogus URL to another doesn't solve the problem.

Did anyone test this pattern? /tag/slug/&oogabooga/page/1/

[miqrogroove]

Also what about? /yyyy/mm/slug/page/0/
