query replace -- error with prompt instead of insert

Is there a way to make query-replace flash and
error instead of inserting a "y"or "n" when 
I answer prompts beyond the buffer?

So if there are two instances of 'foo' and 
I replace 'foo' with 'bar' but hit
'y' 10 times, I don't want to insert 8 'y' 
characters, but flash and error instead.

(A similar thing for c-x e for executing 
macros would be great too).

Tx
