OK, so on a normal isearch-forward, I can continue pressing C-s to run
isearch-forward multiple times. How do I get this functionaliy for re-
search-forwarwd? For instance I want to be able to hit M-s multiple
times for my regex search.

C-M-s my-regexp C-s C-s C-s ...
or
C-M-s my-regexp C-M-s C-M-s C-M-s ...
(no return after entering the regexp since the search is incremental)

This feature has irritating differences from isearch though. For example, if you have a regexp in the kill buffer and do a C-y at the prompt, it does not yank your regexp but copies (part of?) the current line instead. And M-p at the prompt seems not to work.
Still better than M-x p M-p [enter] though, I guess.
