Right in GNU (24) it is.
That seems strange to me. I'm almost tempted to call it a bug.
But I don't remember whether it was ”smooth” or maybe ”regular”
so I thought of searching just ” the way I described. I could type it,
kill it and then paste into the search string, but that seems quite
cumbersome.
It should be possible to enter it directly into isearch. I'm not sure
why that doesn't work (but I'm not surprised, isearch implementation
is a huge crock). What I do when I need to search for something that
isearch doesn't allow to enter is use M-x search-forward.
In the particular case you're talking about I might use a regexp
search: C-u C-s smoo\|reg
