had an idea for a search and replace feature, i think it would be quite useful for refactoring patches. There were similar feature requests already some time ago (2018) so wondering if there is still interest in this.
Imagine being able to make a selection and seeing all locations where these nodes are placed in the patch, then having the possibility to make changes that propagate across all (or selected) occurences. I am thinking of UX similar to multicursor editing in vscode.
Dont know if this is worth the development effort but could be interesting to explore.
