Right.  I spoke earlier about calling reposition-window from
diff-hunk-next as a possible replacement for recenter, and Juri
suggested an equivalent behavior for Isearch, and the aim of these
changes is to show the most useful context around point -- which does
not necessarily mean keeping point close to the center of the window.
For example, with the Isearch example I gave, point can end up
anywhere in the window after searching, since reposition-window tries
to position the first line of the function definition on the first
screen line.
