0. emacs -Q
1. C-h c M-e - M-e runs the command forward-sentence
2. C-h c M-c - M-c runs the command capitalize-word
3. C-h c M-r - M-r runs the command move-to-window-line-top-bottom

IOW, those are keys that are more useful to exit Isearch and do
what they do normally, thus advertising the new bindings will help
to get rid of old bindings in later releases.
