The discussion of this bug seems to have stalled. I'd very much like to
decide all the issues now, and to fix (this part of) this bug.
Bug summary: With follow mode active, and lazy highliting active, forward
Isearch scrolls the left hand window when it should instead move to to
the right hand window.
Immediate cause: the form "(sit-for 0)" in
isearch-lazy-highlight-new-loop scrolls the window before Follow Mode has
had a chance to resynchronise everything.
Proposed solutions:
1. Call follow-post-command-hook from isearch-update before calling
isearch-lazy-highlight-new-loop (as described above).
2. Call the proposed function `redisplay-would-scroll-window' instead of
the `sit-for'.
3. Make isearch-lazy-highlight-new-loop always set the idle timer, and
test for the need for a new loop instead in the function it triggers.
Remove the `sit-for'.
I now think solution 2. is not sensible or realistic. Redisplay is just
too complicated to second-guess.
Solution 1. has the disadvantage that follow-post-command-hook would be
called twice for every command in Isearch. It is not fast.
Solution 3. similarly might have the problem that if
lazy-highlight-initial-delay is set to zero, redisplay might not have
done its work when isearch-lazy-highlight-update runs. (I haven't tried
it out, yet).
Personally, I am in favour of solution 3, but I'm willing to be persuaded
into solution 1. But I'd like us to come to a decision quickly.
