Good points. From an interface perspective, I like the idea of getting rid of the non-advanced find "replace". I agree the implementation in advanced find is a big step backward for simple find/replace, but I think this could be fixed. From what I understand, it would be possible to detect whether a "find/replace" is simple or if it uses advanced features. For the simple case, the current (non-advanced) implementation could be used. In any case, I don't think anyone would support this idea, and even if so I don't have time to help work on it, so let's forget about it. I just tested current master. There is a strange issue with one of the buttons. Screenshot attached. Thanks for the work on this, Jürgen. It is a great improvement! Scott
