It can be helpful sometimes to do things in stages, taking out an element or two at a time. It can make the search expression less complicated.

It is also helpful to set up the search expression and repeatedly find without replacing to make sure it will not go berserk. In Sigil finding what you didn't intend can be catastrophic unless you do a save just before your replace all.
It can be hard for any normal human to envision all possible things any search will grab, even for just plain characters.
