If \ef and Alt+f generate distinct character sequences, you can bind them

or not incremental searching expands keyboard macros.
In that case, how would one go about binding æ such that it both exits an
incremental search and executes forward-word?
There isn't, really. Any character that doesn't end the search or map to
one of a few editing functions that the isearch code uses to modify the
search string is added to the search string.
