Yes.

Now, I don't even need this feature because I use highlight-regexp
very seldom so I am not arguing, but generally speaking, why is it a
problem if we wanted to add this even though highlight-regexp has no
default keybinding? Is it because having no default keybinding implies
that a command is not very much used (by most users)?
