One additional question: what do you expect ‘M-s _ M-p M-p M-p ...’ to do?
Should it browse the previous search strings only from the currently active
search mode (in this case symbol search)?  Or while browsing previous elements,
should it change the search mode, e.g. when a previous search string
was saved to the search-ring by word mode, then toggle word mode
from symbol mode after typing 'M-p'?
