Please make it work like Notepad++ (or VisualStudio.Net). Clicking the Replace button goes to the next occurrence and highlights it.

Kind of horse has bolted situation to me.
My #1 hope for Sigil 0.5 is that all the find/replace glitches can be sorted out once and for all - by that I mean the sort of thing that meme has reported and those I have reported with previous versions (which still exist). My confidence level with Find/Replace while slightly improved with the last 0.4 version is still zero - there are way too many glitches with it where it either does not put the text on screen (it is at the start of a long paragraph that you only see the end of), does not actually do the replace (you do a replace all, then a Find and it finds more of them), or the ever intermittent click into the code view after doing a Find, only to have it jump to the top of the document so you have to do the Find again...

Absolutly.
I want to see what
will be replaced if I am stepping along.
If I wanted to blindly replace, I would have clicked
all 
(OK, so my REGEX foo is not in the master class, so I step a lot
)
