I wasn't aware about that function; I like it! It saves typing.

After playing with it, I see that above function corresponds to 
`zap-up-to-char' (i.e., it doesn't add CHAR to the search string).

The following changes might be worth:
- A rename, or an alias, of above function to `isearch-yank-up-to-char'
- Add similar funtion `iseach-yank-to-char' (i.e. one that inserts CHAR
  in the seach string).
