Replacing in Book View is also unpredictable due to the way the code converts from html to plain text and should be avoided, which will soon be taken care of for you.

This exact issue (1) is why I always test my finds by stepping through a whole bunch of times (sometimes a bunch of different sections) before I hit
All.
Sometimes I determine, I am unable to craft a bullet proof
Find and step through the whole book, doing Next or Replace.
Crash is not good
as a quick and dirty, can we get a toggle (button) to disable the Undo logging?
BTW I always start/obtain my
Find in CV. BV is for visually locating errors and adding/removing Paragraph breaks
(My work flow is probably biased by the fact my first word processor was Wordstar 2, with Dot Code format commands
)
