It seems the conclusion was that it should not be an option.
As for a command, there were objections against binding it to a key,
but without a keybinding such command has little sense.

Thanks for the suggestion. Customization of wrapping was implemented now
by the new option 'isearch-wrap-pause'. It also handles numeric arguments
of 'isearch-repeat'.

These functions are intended to be modified by modes, not by users.

Rewriting isearch is a huge and unnecessary task.
More patches were posted directly to emacs-devel now,
so more changes are expected from that discussion.
