Maybe this is why reverse search doesn't work for you Wayne?

That did it, thanks!

Regarding aborting the search with movement keys, that would pretty much make it impossible to go back and make edits in the search string (other than backspace), but maybe no-one does that?

Line up/down would not cause any limitations. You're right though that character forward/back would prevent the edits to the search string. It is a tradeoff -- I see the value of canceling the search with those keys being better than the ability to edit the search string with them. My argument pretty much comes down to "That's how emacs does it" though. :)
