Char-fold isearch is a screw. I wanted to search for lines starting with a space, so I searched for C-j SPC, but it did something useless. It found every blank line! 2. So I decided to try to disable it, but the doc string of isearch says nothing about how to turn that off. It should say how. 3. I tried using C-h v to find a variable, but although there is isearch-case-fold-search, there is no isearch-char-fold-search. For parallelism's sake, isearch-char-fold-search should exist. 4. I searched in etc/NEWS for 'char fold' and 'char-fold'. Neither appears. Both of them SHOULD appear, for the sake of people who search for them. 5. I did find 'isearch', and that entry described the new inconvenient feature. However the entry there did not say how to disable this feature. It should say how.
