Got following warning when I build:
scripts/kconfig/nconf.c: In function ât_mext_matchâscripts/kconfig/nconf.c:512: warning: implicit declaration of function âblankâ

The searching works great! And good to see the capitilazation gone.

But it is ackward that I have to press ESC to leave searcing.

I can navigate up/down, but entering a menu should terminate search.
Also pressing enter (to select a symbol) should terminate search.

I also tried to do first search using "/", then search for a symbol using F8.
Again search was not terminated when I came back.

There is likely much more cases...
