1. Please file a separate bug report when you move the goal post.

2. Please do NOT do this.  There are reasons we want to
   stay at the same search hit.  One of them has already
   surfaced in these (lamentable) discussions of isearch
   "improvements": namely, use `C-r RET' to move to the
   beginning of the search hit (when searching forward).
