I think there is no need in such dialog because when Isearch is active, there is the isearch-specific tool-bar and Isearch submenu in the menu bar. > The proposal on the table is to remove non-incremental search commands > from the Search menu. There is a menu item in the Isearch submenu named "Nonincremental search". But it you really don't want to remove nonincremental menu items from the Edit menu then they could be swapped with incremental menu items, i.e. to promote incremental menu items higher, and demote nonincremental menu items deeper to the submenu where currently more often used incremental menu items are located.
