No, I would agree this is a reasonable capability to include for work needed
implementing a _Special_ panel function for Find and Replace.
The missing piece now is _exposing_ a graphic object to the Find and Replace
actions. MS Office provides matching for a graphic object with the "^g"
wildcard on both the Find and the Replace tabs.
During implementation for LibreOffice, specifics of the capability might need
to consider scaling/clipping to fit the replacement into the document (to
retain formatting) or just replace.</pre>
