Experimenting with 2.4 in conjunction with issue 15666 seems to give some hints
on two small improvements that may perhaps be possible for reducing the impact
of not being able to search for ^$ in conjunction with any string at all:

1. Use \r for inserting a paragraph mark/paragraph break instead of \n
2. Use \n for inserting a newline/line break

Rationale:
- OOo 2.4 can insert newlines, try a regex search and replace searching for \n
(any number) replacing it by & or $0 ($n if () are used in the search 
expression)
- OOo 2.4 can insert paragraph breaks already, but uses the wrong (illogical)
expression for it, \n, which is already used for newlines.

If this part of the code today is remotely like what it AFAIR was in 1.x, using
\r instead of \n for inserting a paragraph break seems to be a matter of
replacing the string \n by \r in the corresponding places of the code (and the
help files).

Let's hope a real programmer beats me to finding, downloading and messing up a
current snapshot of the code, although that part seems to be the easy part,
after looking at this:
