The README file for metamorph suggests that you are reimplementing
query-replace-regexp's \,:

    In interactive calls, the replacement text can contain ‘\,’
    followed by a Lisp expression.  Each
    replacement evaluates that expression to compute the replacement
    string.  Inside of that expression, ‘\&’ is a string denoting the
    whole match as a string, ‘\N’ for a partial match, ‘\#&’ and ‘\#N’
    for the whole or a partial match converted to a number with
    ‘string-to-number’, and ‘\#’ itself for the number of replacements
    done so far (starting with zero).

Or am I missing something?
