As theducks said, some folks scare easily of CV, or rather, most users starting with Sigil will use BV. And I'm not sure why you would prevent its use there since it doesn't cause any additional issues and works fine.

Why is it best with regex not to use a cursor position? Maybe I'm just missing something. (Obviously cursor position has to be taken into account at some point, otherwise find next will always just find the same text as the find will always start from the beginning of the file...)
