Looks very impressive.

The emphasis on interactive searches is a bit awkward, though (at least
for me): I don't really want to be typing in pcase forms in the
minibuffer, and I just want to get a occur-like buffer in one step.  Is
that possible?

That would allow the users (i.e., programmers) to just put the stuff in
a function and use at will.  For instance

(el-search-occurs
  "~/src/emacs/trunk/lisp"
  '`(read-string ,(pred stringp) nil ,_ ,t)
  'recursive)

or something.
