Hi!

Can you tell if it's possible to use the Mass Search/Replace plugin to Search&Replace the body of books' text?

Such as replacing "labour" with "labor" across all books in a library. Or, as another example, I read a lot of books from Chinese sources and there are multiple technically correct translations of the same character's name, I would like to make all books spell it the same way.

I already replaced all I need in metadata, but I'm having trouble doing it in the books' text itself.

I can do that with Calibre's native Search&Replace, but it works one book at a time and I might need tens or hundreds of books edited at once, so doing it that way would be pretty time-consuming.
