OK, I think I found the problem.  I have something working, but
will send it in the form of a patch in a while.

Essentially, it is the isearch.el code itself that imposes, in
a few places, not searching past (window-end) or before
(window-start), regardless of the value of
`isearch-lazy-highlight-max-at-a-time'.  This is what needs to
be fixed, to be (point-max) and (point-min) when
`isearch-lazy-highlight-max-at-a-time' is nil.

A more thoroughgoing fix would take into account a numeric
value of `isearch-lazy-highlight-max-at-a-time', but I won't
bother with that, for now.
