An Improved Emacs Search
I am thinking myself of whether swiper/swoop functionality can entirely replace isearch, or whether it is better kept separate. You never use isearch at all?

Highlighting and listing all instances of a block of text
The easiest way of doing this is using M-x occur which might be bound to M-s o by default. This will involve typing out the search string. I like using helm-swoop which I've bound to M-i, which searches for the thing at point, which is faster. Both of these tools generate the sparse buffer and let you jump around the file. The advantage of using occur is that you can invoke edit and then modify one or more occurences directly in the occur buffer.
