Yes I know all that. But there is no `search only' mode for defining
abbreviations. Abbreviations can be valuable in search mode, but an
annoyance in command line mode. There is no way to to do this:

iab ihr rhs
sab ihr rhs

which would define an abbreviation for insert and search modes, but
NOT for command line mode. And that is what I want. Putting it another
way, I want any and all abbreviations disabled in command line mode,
but I may well want
them working in insert,  and replace mode or when searching (in
`search' mode).
