How about an updated Find dialog to include the great replace functionality found in 2 text extensions - Replace text and Replace font ?

The idea is to have a unified dialog that can find/replace on almost anything in the document - text, styles, attributes, fonts etc.

A history of past find/replaces (in the combo-box), exact and case sensitive matching, undo history, dockable dialog, and the status on what was found/replaced.

Any ideas to improve the find dialog more that welcome ...
