(Resending because I had some odd mailer behavior when I first tried to
send this.)

The "Lax Search" Info node says

    Searches in Emacs by default perform character folding

But I don't see search-forward or search-backward doing that.  For
example, in the scratch buffer of "emacs -Q" if I do

  ä C-p
  M-x search-forward RET a RET

Emacs complains that the search failed.  (If it matters, the "ä" was
input using the 3-key sequence COMPOSE " a .)

I suspect that this is a bug in the code.  If not, the Info text should
be more precise about what searches perform character folding by
default.

Also, assuming that this is a bug in the code, the doc strings for
search-forward and search-backward should mention
search-default-regexp-mode, just like they mention case-fold-search.
