Using multi-buffer isearch with isearch-from-minibuffer adds a new
dimension to complexity, but could be simplified when all isearch commands
will be redirected from the minibuffer to the original buffer.

The main problem is that currently quitting the minibuffer restores
the original window configuration, so quitting isearch-edit-string
will restore the original buffer state before isearch was started.
