[Libreoffice-ux-advise] [Bug 87525] Wrong replace behaviour with Find & Replace window open

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=87525

--- Comment #11 from Michael Bauer <fios@akerbeltz.org> ---
A lack of results is a more preferable 'error' in my view because no data is
lost or affected until the correct settings are chosen. When I discovered this
'behaviour' by accident, I had already lost 2 days work because the default
behaviour 'silently' affects the whole sheet. This of course includes the
selected range but unless you *happen* to have to rows or columns side by side,
only one of which should be affected, then you potentially, as I did, mess up a
whole swathe of data without ever noticing it until it's way too late.

True, Excel has no such tickbox but it is the default behaviour. Thank you for
clarifying.
