As a user, I would like to be redirected to Personal Spaces instead of Profiles when clicking user links in the People Directory

As a user, I would like to be redirected to Personal Spaces (if available) when clicking on usernames in the People Directory.

Current behavior: you are redirected to the user's Profile (/display/~admin for example).

Expected behavior: to be directed to /spaces/viewspace.action?key=~admin. This especially makes sense when clicking on People with Personal Spaces in the People Directory.

I've tested this in a few older versions and it appeared to be already behaving the expected way in versions 4.x, and changed in 5.0.1. So this might be considered a regression instead of an improvement request.
