I think we need a general function that will start isearch with
an arbitrary string. This string could be the last search string
or the word/symbol/thing at point. The latter will provide a
useful feature currently presented in Vim (keys `*' and `#').
There is one implementation I helped to create in
http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/SearchAtPoint
This could be generalized and added to isearch.
