SUMMARY
Recently "Replace All" in the replace dialog broke in certain cases when using
the "Escape sequence" mode and only replaces a subset of strings to replace.
Clicking "Replace all" multiple times will continue replacing strings until the
desired result is eventually reached.

1. Open an new document in Kate.
2. Add the following content to the document:
1\n
2\n
3\n
4\n
3. Open the search replace dialog (CTRL + R)
4. Ensure the search/replace mode is set to "Escape sequences"
5. Enter "\\n" into the "Find" input field and "\n" into the "Replace" input
field
6. Click "Replace All"
OBSERVED RESULT
A toast stating "2 replacements made" and the following content in the document
now:
1
2
3\n
4\n
EXPECTED RESULT
A toast stating "4 replacements made" and the following content in the document
now:
