There are several problems with it:
1. The image scrolling commands only scroll on images, so you couldn't
scroll down to the text with <down> or C-n.
The "Page 1 of 200" text isn't there anymore due to this. Now it's
in the mode-line. (Thanks to Stefan)
2. My main problem with the search approach was that the real isearch
happens in another buffer in the background and the doc-view buffer
has to be updated accordingly by switching to the right page. With
your approach that would be even harder. Here, you would have to
do the same plus copying the page with the current match from the
text representation's buffer to the doc-view buffer plus an
additional isearch in the doc-view buffer to highlight the match.
Or do you mean that doc-view should display all images of a
document at once, like: page1.png
page1 text
page2.png
page2 text...
Bye,
