I have used spaces in find/replace operations in text for many years, but I do so very carefully, and as a result, I've been very successful. Especially when editing books, there are enough odd situations with scanned books that I simply don't use Replace All. And by replacing one at a time, I have another double-check, as well, which is that each instance is highlighted, including the spaces, which are often part of what I need to replace with no space. But again, I don't do this as a Replace All operation. I have a specific methodology that I use, and I haven't found searching for and replacing spaces to be stupid at all. In fact, it's often been a great time-saver. But perhaps you were referring more to coding or other such technical tasks, which I don't do.
Thank you for being willing to add the option to disable the popups.
