** New command 'replace-regexp-as-diff'.
It reads a regexp to search for and a string to replace with, then
displays a buffer with replacements as diffs. After reviewing the
changes in the output buffer you can apply the replacements as
a patch to the current file buffer. There are also new commands
'multi-file-replace-regexp-as-diff' that shows as diffs replacements
in a list of specified files, and 'dired-do-replace-regexp-as-diff'
that shows as diffs replacements in the marked files in Dired.

** New mode of prompting for register names and showing preview.
The new user option 'register-use-preview' can be customized to the
value t or insist to request a different user interface of prompting for
register names and previewing the registers: Emacs will require
confirmation for overwriting the value of a register, and will show
the preview of registers without delay. You can also customize this
new option to disable the preview completely.
The default value of 'register-use-preview' preserves the behavior of
Emacs 29 and before. See the Info node "(emacs) Registers" for more
details about the new UI and its variants.
