This doesn't work satisfactorily: temporarily displaying the search
prompt at the end of the minibuffer causes too long delay after typing
C-s and before point moves to the next occurrence of the search string.
Could you be more specific? How long is the delay, and what causes it?
1. not to display the search prompt while searching in the minibuffer
at all, because the search string is highlighted in the minibuffer anyway.
Thus the search prompt will not obscure the minibuffer text, and users
will be provided with visual feedback about the place the search reached.
That's what it does now. If people like that best, that's fine with me.
2. to display the search prompt for 2 sec only when it contains
error messages.
It would be useful for people to try this, too.
