bug#734: 23.0.60; Interactively use a list argument to replace-string +

One of the reason we don't document the fact that the second argument to
replace-string can be a list of strings is that currently this can only
be used programmatically.  As noted in its docstring, replace-string is
seldom the right thing to use in a Lisp program.

As for providing a way to use this feature interactively, that might be
feasible in the future.
