Just because they are old does not mean that they are set in > stone, we have done such changes before as well. Given that we rebind C-y to yank text in isearch (`isearch-yank-kill'), can you find a good keybinding for `isearch-yank-line' that is currently on `C-y'? (It would be good to reserve `M-y' for a new command `isearch-yank-pop' by analogy with `M-y' `yank-pop'). -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/
