the clunkiness that i think of that has always been there is this,
which might or might not be related:

  - if you are using the mouse when the query occurs, the query might
be in the minibuffer.  it should be in a dialog box.
  - if you are using the kb when the query occurs, the query might be
a dialog box.  it should be in the minibuffer.

the reason is that i am almost always either in mouse mode or kb mode.
switching causes impact on my system as i have to lift my arms,  or
drop one and possibly lift it again, which can be significantly
problematic in my case for unrelated reasons.

for isearch, i do not recall previous instances of it in v<=26.1.  i
was only on 26.1 briefly.  27.1 was a first that i recall.
