Hi, Juri.
I'm answering both your last two emails together, here.

Fixed, see patch below.

.../textmodes/ispell.el also uses the lazy highlighting, so it will need
amending too.

Yes. This is logical - the (extended) lazy highlighting indicates what
would get fully highlighted on a future (wrapped) repeated search. I'm
not saying it's a feature, but it's certainly logical. ;-)

This is present even without my patch. This shrunk lazy highlight
indicates precisely what would be matched on a repeated backward search.
This is sort of logical too. It would be too much work to make the
backward search match all the whitespace greedily.

This is now fixed, too. It seems that `run-with-idle-timer' doesn't
retain the current `let'-bindings when it runs, even though the
documentation doesn't mention this. This is the reason for all these
isearch-lazy-highlight-.... static variables shadowing dynamic ones.
I've learnt something today. :-)

Yuck, what a variable! I've fixed this, too.

It made me seriously unhappy, to the point where I would have disabled
whatever was causing it. It looks very scrappy, unlike the rest of
Emacs. I predict, if we don't fix it, there will be quite a few angry
bug reports, a bit like when the "fringe" was introduced in 21.1 with no
way of disabling it, but probably not as bad.
And this _is_ a regression, maybe not in the code, but certainly from the
point of view of a user. It is true that this effect can be disabled by
`isearch-toggle-lax-whitespace' but there is no way a normal user can
find this out, apart from stumbling on it by luck. We can't really
document this either.
I'm surprised how difficult the fix is. Maybe lazy-highlighting should
be refactored out of isearch.el and given a better interface.
Here's the latest patch, which I think now works, apart from ispell.el.
