It's a bit trickier than that.  Evil defines a minor mode
(evil-local-mode), then a global minor mode (evil-mode) using it and a
few more variables for state tracking.  The supported mode of operation
is therefore global, while still allowing to deactivate it on a
per-buffer or even per-command basis (there's a command to deactivate
Evil's keymaps for the duration of the next command).

Hm, this sounds hackier than the current approach, also, what if another
package let-binds this variable for custom search functionality?  The
reason I reported this warning is because I suspect something about
isearch and the minibuffer setup hook isn't done correctly, in hope of
getting rid of the warning for every user of that variable.
