Basically it has been my experience that query-replace-regexp-eval is
a nice idea, but in practice quite unusable. \, achieves a similar
purpose but with a much more convenient interface.
Could you write some text to document the \ feature in the Emacs Manual?
To get back to the original question: since \, has all of the
functionality of query-replace-regexp-eval with a more convenient
interface, query-replace-regexp-eval could be considered obsolete or
at least obscure.
I think its doc string should mention that the \ feature is more
convenient for interactive use, and the function should be marked
obsolete.
