Would this word list of find and replaces be book specific or reasonably static?
The way Atlantis has done it (and some other software of similar intention) is by lists/text files with word pairs. The lists are pure text, and interchangeable, so they are static, but you can have as many as you want for different types of books or languages, and load whichever you deem most useful for the actual purpose.

Perhaps a better example might be wReplace ( http://www.sharktime.com/en_wReplace.html ) - it's rather old and haven't seen an update for many years, but still works.

Probably could. I have build mine from word frequency lists using a wordprocessor and a spreadsheet.
