Many word processors and text editors I know have explicit options to opt for "Match case" and "Match whole word only" when searching and replacing text strings. These features are not so obvious under emacs. Though it is not a big deal for seasoned emacs users I cannot imagine a novice user to discover and manipulate case-fold-search variable or start using \b in regular expression search. The need for those feature is pretty basic and even a novice user may sometimes want to use. Do you think it is worth considering to have these search options to be explicit choice from the Edit->Search and Edit->Replace menu?
