Thanks, but the doc string of the new function is hard to understand:
> +(defvar replace-regexp-function nil
> + "Function to convert a search string to a regexp to replace.
> +It's bound to `isearch-regexp-function' when searching

The first sentence is unclear: what do you mean by "convert a search
string to a regexp to replace"? What "search string" is being
converted to regexp, and how does "replace" enter this picture?
And this:
It's bound to `isearch-regexp-function' when searching
seems to be incorrect: it's isearch-regexp-function that's bound to
replace-regexp-function, not the other way around.
Can you clarify the doc string, please?
