Does anyone know how to search for the visual selection or yanked text?

The vim trick of / C-r 0 to search for yanked text doesn't work.

At least if you use evil's own interactive search module (customize-variable evil-search-module, by default evil uses Emacs's isearch for searching) the search prompt is a usual minibuffer and therefore C-y can be used to yank the text. Frank
