query-replace:
Arguments FROM-STRING, TO-STRING, DELIMITED, START, END, BACKWARD, and
REGION-NONCONTIGUOUS-P are passed to `perform-replace' (which see).
perform-replace:
Non-nil REGION-NONCONTIGUOUS-P means that the region is composed of
noncontiguous pieces. The most common example of this is a
rectangular region, where the pieces are separated by newline
characters."
