Sorry, this is not possible, Of course it is possible. because when this feature is active it depends on other 4 variables: isearch-mode-hook isearch-search-fun-function isearch-wrap-function isearch-push-state-function Sure, but that is not an obstacle. and isearch-buffers-minor-mode command sets these variables to values that make this feature work. In my proposal, a different function (not a minor mode) sets these variables. isearch-multi-buffers will control how to use them. Do you see it now?
