Ok, that's true.

Now I ask you: why would be so problematic to have (in some cases)
such text to the right of the search string?  The text of these
messages could use the same face as the prompt text (the "I-search:
"), to make perfectly clear what is the search string (in default
face) and what is the "search status feedback".
