Hi Juri,
I tested your patch a bit and it seem to work well. I have a few
comments below.
1. Since you probably want to remove the ugly `with-isearch-suspended'
eventually, the local mode will not only be on by default, it will be
the only alternative. Should then `isearch-buffer-local' be
double-dashed, so it too can be removed?
2. In edit mode, when I delete a character, the search doesn't backtrack
to the barrier. It's the same undesirable behavior described in
https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=46469. In isearch-mb,
the post-command-hook contains
(goto-char isearch-barrier)
(setq isearch-adjusted t isearch-success t)
for to fix that.
3. The after change hook should call `isearch-update' instead of
`isearch-search-and-update' after `previous-history-element' and few
other commands. In isearch-mb I use a symbol property to keep track
of this.
4. Every time one types a character in the minibuffer, there is a
visible flicker in the cursor. In isearch-mb I've let-bound
`inhibit-redisplay' to t in a couple of places and it solved this
problem. I wonder if there's a better solution.
5. The command `isearch-forward-exit-minibuffer' should eventually be
removed, and instead `isearch-repeat-forward' should work in both
cases (this will probably be implemented with the help of a new
macro). The reason for this is that there is at least a dozen other
Isearch commands that make sense in the minibuffer map as well
(toggling modes, quitting and entering query-replace, and so on), and
it would be annoying to write a minibuffer variant for each of them.
6. Why is there the option to specify an `isearch-new-message' in
`with-isearch-suspended'? I've never seen any valid value other than
`(mapconcat 'isearch-text-char-description isearch-string "")', which,
by the way, repeats at several places in isearch.el

I still don't understand why Isearch has to be so stringent about
backward compatibility of key sequences. But I don't care about the
edit mode per se. I only care about an alternative mode where `C-s'
immediately goes to the minibuffer, and exiting the minibuffer ends the
search.
