I'm not pressuring anyone, mind you.  This is part of efforts to develop
project-find-regexp as a replacement of rgrep.  The previous task was
to remove duplicate output lines that is successfully completed now.
The next tasks are support for multi-line search strings, word search, etc.
Bringing keybindings of project-find-regexp closer to grep mode is one
of such tasks that will help the users to adapt grep usage patterns to
project-find-regexp and other grep-like xref commands.
