Re: improving query-replace and query-replace-regexp

[Richard Stallman]

      When
    using this, the prompt and a sample input string might look like this:

    Query replace (sep=" -> "): x -> y

That is an interesting idea.  It might be a shocking change for users,
but it might be a good improvement.  It would be a useful thing for
some people to try this out for a while.

But I'd like to remind everyone that we should focus now on
the tasks in admin/FOR-RELEASE, so that we can make another release,
not on looking for improvements to make.
