I think it's a bug in the info doc. Something as basic as search-forward shouldn't do char folding by default. Char folding can be quite slow, and search-forward must be suitable for programmatic use.

I want to make some of the higher level search commands respect search-default-regexp-function (such as the searches you start from the menu bar). But search-forward won't be one of them.
