feature request: `isearch-query-replace' should open invisible text |

Hi,
if you have `search-invisible' non-nil, isearch "opens" invisible
text. But when you hit M-% or C-M-% while searching, you loose this
ability: point will just be put inside invisible areas, and you don't
see what you're doing. This is somewhat inconsistent. Having an open
invisible feature for replacing text would be very convenient - think
of org files, for example.
Dunno if this would be easy to implement. `isearch-query-replace'
uses just `perform-replace' from replace.el, which doesn't care about
invisible text.
Thanks,
Michael.

Sorry for the delay, it required more testing with more fixes
like adding `isearch-clean-overlays' to `replace-dehighlight', etc.
This is installed now.
