Since I don't think there is a need to often turn on/off this preference, I 
don't think we should extend the search/replace dialog with this setting, so I 
choosed the way of making it a hidden preference. It can be found and easily 
toggled at _Edit > Preferences > Various_, so there is no need to manually edit 
any config files.

> There has been no discussion about it applying to replace.

I don't think users which want to use this preference want a different 
behaviour between search/replace, so the setting applies to both of them. 
However, it would be no problem to make two hidden preferences if needed.

Okay, then I will create a new PL with the second commit which updates the 
manual.
