What about (slightly) altering the current semantics of
`query-replace-interactive' so that the "from" string in query-replace
is taken from:
* if "nil" --> from the minibuffer.
* if "t" --> from the last search string (if any), else from the minibuffer.
* if "any other non-nil value" --> from the last search string, if
`query-replace' was invoked from an I-search session, and else from
the minibuffer.
