This is not an isearch bug in particular but a general bug that affects
all minibuffer interactions. I think that the solution to this is to
hook onto navigation events, so that any ongoing interactive command be
cancelled when the buffer is navigated to a different page.
Are there any circumstances when it would be desirable to continue a
command interaction independent of navigation?
