Advantages: * This would add consistency to the Isearch visual feedback. * The search string would be shown in a fixed position in the message (now the search string jumps right and left when the I-search flags are added/removed in the prompt text. This makes difficult to concentrate on the search string). TIA. -- Dani Moncayo
