I see. Well the Isearch feature I suggested won't really help with that.
You can of course use `M-%' in Isearch to kick into a query-replace. But
`query-replace' just picks up the last search string. It has no notion
of search contexts, AFAIK.
Now maybe things could also be tweaked to make `query-replace' respect
such contexts. In the case of character-property searching, that would
mean making `query-replace' sensitive somehow to `isearch-filter-predicate'.
Perhaps Juri has a suggestion in this regard. He's pretty much the
resident expert on Isearch. Or perhaps you see a solution wrt this.
