Research direction
Start by reading issue #6402 and tracing the TypeScript implementation of interactive :s in the VSCodeVim extension. Reproduce the behavior with multiple replacements, then identify the relevant tests or entry point; done means the document updates after each replacement is confirmed rather than only after the last one.
