xref-query-replace-in-results will not (or its twin 
xref-find-references-and-replace). I suppose not many people would 
expect them to.

Also, there is a nuance: when the Xref buffer itself is shown (i.e. when 
there are multiple locations matching a xref-find-definitions search), 
we're not going to pass (category . xref) to display-buffer either - it 
is reserved for displaying the buffers of destination locations.
