You were right in your thinking - it doesn't work on regexps. I tried
copying the

  \ncline[linewidth=0.3mm,offset=-1.5mm,arrows=->,nodesep=4mm]

into *scratch* and used M-% to query-replace it with \traverse. It
works fine here. Remember that if you place the cursor on top of the
above line, Emacs won't find it. You need to place the cursor before the
line for Emacs to find it.
