    A simple but quite useful extension, which does isearch in Dired but
    match only at filenames.

I can see why the operation is useful, but I am not sure that the usual
isearch operation is so useless that we what to replace it.

This is the sort of question for which I used to poll the users.
Does someone want to do that?
