--- Comment #5 from Bob Smith <bsmith@sudleyplace.com> ---
There appear to be different usage cases of Find & Replace not all of which are
accommodated by the current design.

The one I'd like to see made easier is when selecting an area in which several
Find & Replaces are to be done.  In the current version (5.1.5.2), after the
first F&R, the original selection is deselected meaning that the user must
re-select the text and then F&R the next text.  In that case, I would like the
original text to remain selected and the "Current selection only" checkbox to
remain checked so I can move back and forth between the "Search For" and
"Replace With" edit boxes followed by the "Replace" or "Replace All" buttons.

Perhaps we need another checkbox under "Other options" for "Retain current
selection" which is visible only if "Current selection only" is checked.
