Yes.  AFAIK the C-x w bindings are "legacy" bindings kept for "user
compatibility", and we just tried to preserve their earlier behavior
for now (until we remove them in some future version).

The new M-s h bindings OTOH behave slightly differently because we took
the opportunity to try and improve the behavior.
