Indeed there are two ways to add it: as a new command (that requires a new
keybinding) or a new option (disabled by default) for the existing command.
Maybe we could enable it by default, but I don't know how it will affect
the use cases of users - maybe someone users use isearch to extend the
active region to the next matching symbol, and don't want 'M-s .' to yank
the region.
