It would be useful if you compare to what project-find-regexp does in such project: does it produce the matches in said binary files?
If it behaves better (from your POV), one solution could be to pre-filter the list of project files using the same search, before passing them to project-query-replace-regexp. It can have benefits in performance as well.
(BTW JFYI, you can press 'r' inside the project-find-regexp output buffer instead of using 'project-query-replace-regexp'.)
