Yes, I know you fixed it in bug#45617 as it was I who reported it, and thank
you!

However, it has resurfaced in the development version I'm using - perhaps
the fix was not put into the repository?

The query-replace incorrectly selects all of the `_nmPrmset`s and not just
those in the edit region.

Actually, the region is not lost.  We fixed this in bug#45617 recently,
so now query-replace operates on the correct region boundaries.

But during replacement the region is deactivated deliberately.
If you could confirm that query-replace preforms replacements
only in the selected region (although the region is deactivated
during replacement), then everything is correct.
