As far as I am able to judge from the current code that is just
checked in, if one types M-% from within a regexp isearch or C-M-%
from within an ordinary isearch, the history variable of the last
irrelevant search type gets consulted.
That seems weird. I think that M-% from within a regexp isearch
should probably use the currently matched string, and C-M-% from
within an ordinary isearch should probably use regexp-quote of the
current search string.
I think M-% in string search should do query-replace
and M-% in regexp search should do query-replace-regexp.
That is simple, easy to type, and involves fewer characters.
