If the user wants server.el to display emacsclient-sent buffers in
another window or frame, he can set server-window.

As David pointed out, emacsclient is rarely started in an asynchronous
way; usually is as a result of user interaction, either clicking
somewhere or typing "emacsclient myfile" in a shell. "Messing up" with
the command being executed is exactly what I would expect from such an
action. And IIRC, both the current isearch issue and the previous
patch to abort recursive editing were prompted by users considering
not doing that as a bug.
