Looking through all the related duplicates, I see that Search&Replace is an
issue for almost ten years. There is an ancestor bug report from 2003 in AOO!

Since writing regexes is not very easy, don't forget to make something like the
"batch" feature (store and re-apply stored regexes, being able to give them
reasonable names) is not forgotten!
