Save user replace actions

[Janghou]

Netbeans has one of the user-friendliest implementation's of the search/replace functionality I've seen.
One of the most important thing is that the dialogue stays open, and you can update a selection or change a tab and redo the same replace.

Unfortunately this is not the case with the replace function in projects. It doesn't let you update or change the selection. It would be nice if it could.

Furthermore. I would like to see a feature to save (bookmark) replace patterns and have a possibilty to assign keyboard shortcuts to it/
This would be enormously powerful because you could setup a replace that changes:
line2
line3
line4
line5
to
Code:
<li>line1</li>
<li>line2</li>
<li>line3</li>
<li>line4</li>
<li>line5</li>
(find (.+)$ : replace <li>$1</li>)
and make it accessible with one keyboard shortcut. The same for TD's or p or whatever.

Now the dropdown in the replace function is only remembered in sessions.

I raised the question in the developers group, but I'm quite new to Netbeans, so there answer that it's trivial doesn't help me much.

Hi,

thank you for your ideas. may I ask you to fill this as an enhancement
against php into issuezilla (a link below)? In that case we will always
have it in system so your request won't get lost. Please, place me into
cc field (address-removed).

Thanks a lot.

@Filip
The system didn't accept your name as as username, and your cc-address was removed in your answer.
So I cc'd it to fortruth.

Hope I did OK,
