Thanks for the explanation. I have updated the doc string as suggested.

No. I want to search text in hidden part rather than only in the
visible part, which is necessary for users to find relevant files even
if they are partly hidden.

Here is an example illustrating the problem:
1. emacs -Q
2. type M-: (insert "visible " (propertize "hidden" 'invisible t))
3. C-s hidden

isearch fails to match the invisible text by default, unless
search-invisible is changed to t. However, the default value of
search-invisible is open and it cannot be changed to t during isearch
by M-s i.

Therefore, I would like to change

  (put-text-property ell-beg (point) 'invisible 'dired-filename-hide)

to

  (let ((ov (make-overlay ell-beg (point))))
    (overlay-put ov 'invisible 'dired-filename-hide)
    (overlay-put ov 'isearch-open-invisible t)
    (overlay-put ov 'evaporate t))

in the attached patch, then text in hidden part can be matched
regardless of search-invisible being open or t. It also has a bonus
that hidden text can be revealed during isearch.

Fixed.
