Incidentally, you might just try changing the face is uses to highlight
the `secondary' matches, so it's less intrusive. You can customize the
group (`M-x customize-group') `isearch-faces' to change them.
[I think that the default isearch faces are pretty horrible, but the
feature itself is very useful]

The GNU coding standards in general do not presume any external
non-standard dependencies -- that is, everything they say can
theoretically be accomplished given only the package in question -- and
specify _what_ you should do rather than the mechanism by which you
should do it.
So certain package might want to use a `gnu-install' program that does
the book-keeping for them to meet the coding standards, but they'd have
to have their own copy of that program in their distribution (though
they needn't actually use it if their configure script detects a native
version). Other packages may choose to simply do it another way.
It might be useful for users to have a `gnu-uninstall' program, but such
a thing should be an optional additional package that uses the basic
information provided by each package, as specified by coding standards.

That's true, and maybe this would mean that most packages would end up
using a standard `gnu-install' program/script -- but it should be up to
the package to decide.

The proposed functionality is much, much, less ambitious than a typical
package manager. Really it doesn't do anything more than the current
`make uninstall', it just puts the information in a more handy form,
and allows the user to get rid of the original source/build tree.
People who want real package management can use a real package manager
of their choice.

Oh, true; I was thinking of a list of files installed by `make install'.
Actually, I think both pieces of information are useful --
one answers the question `What files did package FOO install?'
(which I find myself asking quite a lot actually, though since I'm using
debian I usually I can just use `dpkg -L' to find out), and the other
provides an way to automatically uninstall the package (this _usually_
will be the same as `cat LIST-OF-FILES | xargs rm -f', but for complicated
packages, may not be).

That's good, I think.
What about the LIST-OF-FILES though?

Because you are being _very_ pedantic and not addressing the question.
I don't need to be lectured about GNU. You're preaching to the choir on
this list.
