One of my main reasons for editing books in the Calibre editor is to fix spelling mistakes or formatting errors that I find while reading them, so I rely on text searches to locate the point in the text at which the issue is occurring. This is often difficult to do because the text is interspersed with tags which means that no match is found.

I'd like to be able to search for:

This is a text string

and get a match on:

This is a <span class="Italic">text</span> string

Ie, make the search ignore any tags that are contained in the code.

Would this be a feasible future development for the editor, or is it something that it can do now and I've overlooked it?

Thanks!
