No because then we have calibre.

You can do search and replace in every editable file (not images). You can do a search and replace across all (X)HTML files. This is deliberate so you don't do a replace all across all files and accidentally destroy the OPF.

Must the editor provided in QT be used? Am I missing something?
It must be in Qt and cross platform. A lot of the editors out there have their own failings. No single one is perfect. Also, the amount of time to integrate it must be less than the time it would take to write the features from scratch. Oh, and adding features must be just as easy as working within an editor specific to Sigil (adding spell check for instance).
