Bad translation of "Dot all"
In the Dutch version of Calibre, the search/replace option "Dot all" is tranlated as "Alles aanstippen", which is a literal translation, meaning "Go and put a dot next to everything"

The option makes sure that in a regex the dot matches all characters, including line feeds and carriage returns, which it normally does not.
So the translation should be like "Punt matcht alles" or something.
Not a big deal, but just to let you know

Ok, I guess yesterday I found a way to propose a change.
Today the suggestion seems to be still there:

No idea what's next.
I guess I'll find out with some next release?

Your screenshot says "Punt match alles" instead of "Punt matcht alles". Letter "t" is missing. I think another correction is needed. Otherwise the meaning is rather unclear.
