This would be very useful. Current default partial search behavior is annoying. Make sure, though, that it is easy to jump back to where the search started if need be.

I'm working on a patch to evil where searching for a word with '/' allows me to stop at a partial match.

For example, given:
"The wor^d I am looking for is abcd".

where '^' represents point, if I type '/' 'abce', 'abc' is highlighted. When I hit RETURN or C-g I want point to go to the beginning of that partial match and not jump back to where my search started.

Does this seem like a useful idea?
Thanks!
