I think this is an important feature.  But there is no need to add more
search-mode bindings that can be used to exit isearch.  It is even
possible to reduce them with the suggestion I already made a few times -
to use a new conflict-free key prefix M-s.

So I propose to install the following patch as a starting point
for adding more isearch key bindings to it later:
