This originated from a support query. The user was using cubelist.extract_strict() with a single constraint and was confused why this was returning a cube rather than a cubelist. The pertinent lines are these:
iris/lib/iris/cube.py
Lines 324 to 325 in cbfbbb2
I think we need to highlight the fact that using strict=True and one constraint returns a single cube.
