I found that advicing the |occur| and |how-many| function, overriding 
the |re-search-forward| function with my modified version of it 
(sensitive to |isearch-filter-predicate|) it’s not good at all.

That because some predicates, like e.g. |texmathp| provided by AUCTeX, 
use |re-search-forward| too.
