It seems this is what we need to push to be able to close this bug report.
Indeed, it fixes only query-replace commands. But fixing all commands
that use the minibuffer is not as easy as adding 'save-mark-and-excursion'
like in the patch above.
The problem is that 'read-from-minibuffer' is implemented in C.
If it was implemented in Lisp, it would be easy to add just
'save-mark-and-excursion', but in C this is impossible.
