You are forgetting to add<RET> after "C-s M-p". I see no weirdness
here at all. It feel totally natural to me:
* C-s start Isearch.
* M-p brings the *last* ring entry (not the second one, as does now).
*<RET> accepts the selected entry.
but it just feels kind of unnecessary since if you wanted to
search for that you could just C-s C-s to begin with.
"C-s C-s" is the quick way of repeating the last search, but, as I
explained in the OP, it doesn't allow you to check the search string
before starting the search.
Again: The fact that M-p brings the second entry from the ring
(instead of the first one) seems annoying and counter-intuitive to me.
It doesn't allow me to check the tip of the search ring before using
it.
