'incsearch' and 'hlsearch' are part of the settings set by the vimrc_example.vim, and I like them. Clearing the highlight whenever I repaint the screen? Hm, I'm not convinced. I dont like the idea of having Ctrl-L serve as both ":redraw" and ":nohls" which are totally unrelated in my mind. I prefer the latest search highlight to remain highlighted regardless of possible screen repaints, until or unless I explicitly turn it off with either ":nohls" or ":let @/ = ''" (i.e., in case your email reader doesn't clearly display quotation marks, make the search register an empty string).
