agreed, i can carry an extra global-set-key in my ~/.mg :)

Arrggg, right, I forgot that the prefix argument can be negative or
zero. Here's another attempt that handles it too.
The only difference I can spot with emacs now is that zap-to-char
alters `pat' so C-s C-s (resuming isearch) uses the character set by
zap.
