Not particularly, but will not often do it for you if it is some feature that is specific to you. And also ATM there is no method for specifying such "custom" functionality to the search so that makes it more complex. In general Scintilla provides commonly useful features, it is used by many applications and on major platforms, if some feature is not likely to be common its not likely to be added. But it has the ability to give you the whole buffer to perform such things as custom searches yourself. As I said Geany does this for regex searches since it uses different regex engines to Scintilla. So your plugin can ask for a pointer to the buffer and then search away using any search method you want to.
