--- Comment #4 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
For OP, for clarification you are asking for capability to use a single graphic
(held on clipboard)--but I would assume by selection as well--to replace all
graphics/frames on document canvas?

And, you'd like interface via the "Find & Replace" dialog.

Seems feasible. But the existing Find can not target an image directly at the
moment. Something is already in works for LibreOffice with bug 100672 to add a
Special category, that could be extended to include "graphic" objects--icons,
bitmaps, vector images, etc.. 

Otherwise this has been fertile ground for Extension with the like of "Alt
Search" and "Change Picture" both able to target an image for replacement. 

But the search logic for the graphics would have to be figured out for
consistent use in the core Find & Replace dialog.
