Re: RFC: [PATCH] isearch enhancements: symbol mode; syntactic filtering

[Daniel Colascione]

I don't have plans to merge this work before the feature freeze ends. I should have made that clear.

As for the behavior --- I strongly dislike it. It can lead to the same search string being interpreted two different ways.

IIUC that's not a bug, it's a feature. When I switch to regexp search
after starting a normal search, I don't want to revert to non-regexp
search just because I noticed that there was a typo and used backspace
a few times to go fixing that typo.
