--- Comment #2 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
Rereading this, guess this could be considered a duplicate of bug 106137 if you
are asking to parse the Unicode for use in the replacement string.

The Replace string can not be RegEx based because our Regular Expression
support in the Find & Replace dialog uses ICU libraries for its direct Unicode
support. 

The Replace field does not implement its own RegEx beyond using the ICU pattern
matching buffers available from Find [1].

In the see also, devs suggest they may be able to provide new parser to enter
replacement text with \u or \U syntax but that it would not be fully functional
RegEx.
