Currently `keep-all' is used only in `query-replace'. So it is not
too late to let-bind `history-delete-duplicates' in this place instead.
...
Thus `history-delete-duplicates' should support three different values:
We could do that, or make a separate variable.
I think a separate variable would be better, because
these two different activities are for different purposes.
Which means it is really a question of whether to use
an argument for this, or a new global variable.
This arg also has
another drawback: it is available only to one completion function
`read-from-minibuffer' and is not available to all other completion
functions.
I think that is a reason to switch to a variable.
Would you please make that change?
Please update NEWS and the Lisp manual, too.
