I actually like this Search Results dialogue box.  There you can select the
different replacements and the cursor jumps to this cell and then you can
easily see it in the context.  Therefore, if I have a larger Calc sheet it is
useful for me, because I do not need to scroll manually, where I can maybe miss
one.
Therefore, I would like to keep it.
But maybe the number of replacements could be added to this dialogue box.
