I did a little investigating and found that in certain cases, when
a \usepackage line is detected, then a { is inserted into the search
history. I removed that bug in the latest cvs. I still haven't been able
to reproduce any problems with { getting into the search history with
macros etc. Could you give me a better description of the problem
(with hopefully steps on how to reproduce it?) if the problem persists?

I would rather that vim-latex didn't do any :noh kind of things... If
this gets really annoying you can do something like

:nmap <F7> :set hls!<CR>:set hls?<CR>

and then have 'nohls' set by default and when you do searches, you can
press <F7> quickly.
