Please mention completion during isearch in the Emacs manual: M-TAB
lets you complete the search string against previous search strings.
 
This is at least as important as some of the other uses of M-TAB that
are documented. From the index:
 
* M-TAB:                                 Symbol Completion.   (line  10)
* M-TAB (customization buffer):          Changing a Variable. (line  49)
* M-TAB (Mail mode):                     Header Editing.      (line  39)
* M-TAB (Picture mode):                  Tabs in Picture.     (line   6)
* M-TAB (Text mode):                     Text Mode.           (line  36)
