If this is only about C-M-% reading a regexp
then OK, and I apologize for not having read
more of the thread.

C-M-%'s reading of a regexp is an all-at-once,
one time reading that uses the minibuffer.

That reading has nothing to do with Isearch's
reading of keys you type, for incremental
input and editing of the search pattern.  

_If_ this is about Isearch's incremental
handling of a search pattern, then maybe my
comment is relevant.  Apart from `M-e', since
Day One Isearch always read input directly,
not using the minibuffer.  It displayed what
you typed in the echo area, giving somewhat
the (mistaken) impression that input was in
the minibuffer.
