group saved searches

As https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=294097 is Editor related, I open a new thread.

- You can call a group of searches by a code word on the top line
- You can execute a group search (select with Shift)
- You can have a detailed report of every regex of this group (before="count" or after).

I am not editing my books. I only update meta data always the same way.

Is there something similar to «saved search tool» possible for «bulk metadata edit dialog». I am looking to run my saved metadata search&replace as a group for several books in one go.

Yes. Look to the right. You get to basically save the filled form
The first Item in the form is the 'recover previously saved'

Yes I am referring to bulkmode S&R but not in the Editor.
Please have a look into the attached Screen.
Any chance to group S&R and run them in one go i.e. "execute a group search" ?

Not something I am interested in implementing personally, but patches are welcome.
