We need a variable like `case-fold-search'.

May be `non-displayed-search' :

*Non-nil if searches and matches should NOT ignore characters
that are not displayed on screen.
Automatically becomes buffer-local when set in any fashion.

If visual search is ever implemented we will need a variable that
will determine if the search is logical (normal) or visual.
May be `bidi-visual-search' ?

Ehud.
