I don't really want to get into this thread. Been there, done that. I'll just
say (once more) what I do, FWIW.
I have a top-level Search menu - it's not under Edit.
On the Search menu, I have all of the search and replace stuff, as well as all
of the "goto" stuff. (The entries shown here with `>' are submenus.)
--------------------
Incremental Search >
Replace >
Grep...
Occurrences...
Tags >
Bookmarks >
Go To >
--------------------
The last one is just the vanilla Go To catchall. I didn't bother to do anything
with it, so it still duplicates the tags stuff - someday I'll remove the tags
stuff from Go To.
I do still have non-incremental search stuff on the Search menu also, but I
agree that it could go away. Here's how I present the non-incremental stuff:
------------------
String Forward...
Backward...
Regexp Forward...
Backward...
Word Forward...
Backward...
------------------
Repeat Forward
Backward
------------------
The Incremental Search submenu looks similar, but without the Word and Repeat
items. (Yes, it could reasonably have Word items too.)
The Replace submenu looks like this:
----------------
Query String
Regexp...
Map...
Tags... (again: M-,)
----------------
Global String...
Regexp
----------------
The Tags submenu looks like this:
----------------------------
Find Tag...
Find Next Tag
----------------------------
Find Tag Regexp...
Search Tagged Files...
Continue Tags Search/Replace
----------------------------
Tags Apropos...
Set Tags File Name...
----------------------------
For buffers such as Dired, I have no Edit menu; just the Search menu.
[I also have Icicles submenus for the Search, Tags, and Bookmarks menus.]
