--- Comment #4 from V Stuart Foote <[email protected]> ---
+1 can see utility, long needed, for a logical 'NOT' or 'OR' syntax to extend
the default logical 'AND' search capability currently available in the 'Find
and Replace...' dialog with Format, Style or Attribute conditions.

It would need UI additions to support more than the current logical 'AND'
entry. 

But IIUC this would not be some simple ICU regex based look-ahead or look-back
addition. Rather this would then require new (and greatly expanded) iterative
search logic be implemented inside the sw editshell(s) to parse the nodes of
the document and then perform the new negations or joins.

Seems feasible, but a lot of dev effort.

With similar needed for sc and sd shells should scope expand to those modules?

Checked and the capable "AltSearch" extension has the same limitations of
logical 'AND' only for format, style or attribute.
