Yes, I think it's not good for exactly that reason; I'll bet a fair
number searches are precisely for the purpose of getting to the place
where you want to set a mark...

"M-SPC", on the other hand, is by default bound to "just-one-space",
which seems eerily related to this isearch feature; morever, most
other "isearch special commands" are bound to meta-keys (M-r, M-e,
etc).

So how about M-SPC toggling this flag in isearch...?
