That might means the new buffer will not be immediately available for
editing, until the user cancels the minibuffer or isearch.  If the
user calls emacsclient, the intention is almost certainly to perform
the edit in Emacs, so this is a minor nuisance.

Another possible complication (which I haven't thought much about) is
when Emacs has frames open on more than one display.  If you are
currently working on one display, having left isearch on in another
display, invoking emacsclient might lead to puzzling behavior.

Anyway, I don't feel strongly about this issue one way or another.  As
Juanma has said, it's rather sad to have the Emacs 22 release drag on
and on while we deal with this kind of nitpicky issues.
