   Please do not do this.  I want to see the new search string,
   not some repetitions informational message.

   Besides, I may rebind C-y in a search to do what it used to do:
   exit the search!

Or we could just restore the behaviour to what it was -- why are these
things changed without doing some rudimentary query of users?


I too find this new behaviour annoying, and want it restored.
