Re: Isearch setting of inhibit-point-motion-hooks too inflexible

[Richard Stallman]

    The following patch against emacs 21.2 will add a new variable
    `isearch-inhibit-point-motion-hooks' and change `isearch-search' to
    make use of it.

That would solve your problem, but since it is an all-or-nothing
choice, we must expect that people using multiple packages will find
that neither t nor nil gives good results for all of those packages.

I wonder if we can find a solution where a single mode
will work with various packages.  Does someone recall why
isearch currently wants inhibit-point-motion-hooks to be t
if it can match in invisible text?
