C-f typed at the end of the isearch's minibuffer that pulls characters from the parent buffer is not user-friendly. With recently proposed special commands like `M-.' in the minibuffer to pull things from the parent buffer to be implemented in the next release, I think it is better to get rid of this misfeature before this release: I don't think it a is bad feature, and the proposal is just a proposal. Please do not change this now.
