[vim/vim] Seach counter should perhaps be placed in the far right corner (Issue #14932)

Please have a look at this image:

The space outlined in red seems to never be used. Perhaps the search counter should be moved to the far right corner - that would give more space for long search patterns.
gVim 9.1.443.

That will make it even harder to notice the counter. I already find it at the current place hard to see when I am concentrating. Depends on monitor size of course.

Indeed. I've also found it annoying that I have to turn my head/eyes to the right corner in order to peak at the search count. I find it a lot easier when it's on the left side which is why I integrated it into my statusline. And it's displayed only when hlsearch is enabled:

@lkintact In case you're interested. There's a plugin that displays the search count in a popup window: https://github.com/obcat/vim-hitspop.

Partial commands are shown there. Do :set showcmd then type y1000000a and you get this:
