Thanks for the reminder, this is installed now.

Isearch integration with hi-lock is far from ideal yet.
The limiting factor is that hi-lock is based on font-lock
when font-lock is enabled. Otherwise, it is plain search-based.
Perhaps we should check in `isearch-highlight-regexp'
whether font-lock is active in the current buffer,
and when font-lock is disabled then let-bind all relevant
search variables like `lax-whitespace', `search-invisible',
filters, etc. So search-based hi-lock will be able to highlight
correctly the same matches as isearch.
This will provide the correct conversion of the search parameters
to hi-lock (at least partly for the case when font-lock is disabled
and hi-lock is search-based).
