I am aware of the development of the code on this page.  I don't think
the need for isearch-mode-help has any relation to this.  f3 is an attempt
to use the same key f3 that activated the search, in isearch mode too to
repeat the search  So you could use successive `f3 f3 f3 ...' to start
and repeat the search.
