This would be very clumsy user interface since it is not an intuitive
key for switching search modes, and also will require an indication
somewhere for the current mode.
However, I think PgDn is a good candidate for a new command that
just like PgUp displays a list of completions in a separate buffer,
will display a list of elements from the history list in a
separate buffer. I think this would be a useful feature.
It will allow browsing all elements of the history list in one buffer
and using normal isearch to search them.
