I realize I am only one user, but I would strongly support this. I have often been in the middle of an isearch and typed "C-h" because I couldn't remember one of the nifty isearch features. On the other hand, I haven't used anything other than RET or C-g to exit an isearch since Emacs 20.1. -- Michael Welsh Duggan (md5i@cs.cmu.edu)
