Juri, do we have a similar command (as those pulling things into the 
search string) that pulls the region?

I mean something as the following code (I find useful having a 
binding for it in isearch-mode-map):

(defun my-isearch-yank-selection (beg end)
  "Pull selection into search string."
  (interactive
   (let ((region (and (use-region-p) (region-bounds))))
     (unless region (user-error "No selected region"))
     (list (caar region) (cdar region))))
  (isearch-yank-internal
   (lambda () (goto-char (if (= (point) beg) end beg))
     (when select-active-regions (deactivate-mark))
     (point))))


If we don't have it I can open a separated bug report for it.
