Sure you can. Since it is a search string, just type something like
/lasjdslkddd
I just let my fingers jitter on the home row. It won't match anything,
thereby turning off the highlighting and leaving the pager otherwise
unchanged.
That being said, I would really like such an uncolor feature myself. I
receive internal newsletters that I find easier to read if I highlight
the section headings like this:
display-hook '~s "blips"' 'push "/\^[A-Z0-9][A-Z0-9 [:punct:]]*$^M"'
These highlights disappear, however, whenever I search for something.
Being able to color and uncolor patterns in the pager would be a good
solution.
