Sorry for replying to a wrong comment when closing this request,
there are so many comments that I picked a wrong one.

I completely implemented all points from your original request,
and this new feature works so well, that I already customized
`isearch-allow-scroll' to `unlimited' and started using it
even without enabling `lazy-highlight-buffer'.

BTW, regarding another feature that you helped to develop,
I just realized that the variable name `isearch-yank-on-move' is not
the best one.  I propose a better name `isearch-move-to-yank'.
