You just need to tweak replace.el's messages so that they are displayed
differently when working in the minibuffer. They could use the same trick
used in completion commands: [Complete but not unique].
I think many places that use message (or minibuffer-message) could
advantageously use a function that calls either message or
minibuffer-message depending on the context.
