Feature request: "All files" or "All selected files" search options

I usually work on books containing .smil (media overlay) files, which Sigil displays in the Misc folder.

It would be really nice to be able to globally search/replace in them, or in any other type of file that Sigil wasn't expecting. An "All selected files" option would be very handy, or even an "All files in Misc folder," if that's less problematic.

Thanks!

I will look into something like that for a future release. There are already options for Selected XHtml and Selected CSS files.

That said, searching binary file types like fonts, and most images makes no sense but they are selectable in BookBrowser.

So adding restricted support to search selected .smil, or selected .js files or selected .svg files might be useful.

Yes, that kind of thing, and thank you in advance. Or even let people search literally all files, with an "are you sure about these PNGs?" dialogue.
