Just an idea....

When performing "replace all" operation.......sometimes people make stupid choices of replacements/regex....and the operation will freeze up textpad or make computer slow to crawl. For the replaceall, would it be possible to lock the current buffer from being changed, run the replace on background thread, and allow a cancel button to remain responsive? Not sure how much of a headache it would be to still allow browsing/changing of the other documents open at the time....even if it locked them all, an effective cancel button would be a great thing.

Also, mentioned many times before.....better utf8 support....


Thank you,
Paul
