Please don't rely too much on things like "color" in your descriptions.
Think more of what is the intended use rather than the visual effect you
expect for it.
[ I for one likely wouldn't change the foreground color of "matched
  results".  ]

What kind of "matched results" are you thinking of?
The text matched during isearch?

I think this one could be an alias for the current `highlight`, right?
