Would it not be possible to use C-u to have both behaviors? With the following code C-s C-y M-y... and C-s M-y M-y... work as before, and C-s C-u C-y and C-s C-u M-y use the new feature.It is a nuisance that C-u doesn't exit the search as it ought to.
This changed in Emacs 24, eight years ago. Previously C-u was bound to isearch-other-control-char, which (by default) aborted isearch and called universal-argument. With Emacs 24 and above it is bound to universal-argument without aborting isearch; for example, C-s C-u a searches for "aaaa".
