--- Comment #4 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tietze at documentfoundation.org> ---
IIUC, the original request was to find digits like ABC1EFG per "\d *". Works
for me with and without the code around nStartOfs/nEndOfs returning "Search key
not found" for ABC-EFG.

Don't see much benefit from adding a note about zero-length matches to the UI;
although it's easy to implement and unobtrusively replacing the "Search key not
found" label. Point is that you get the zero result anyway. But no objection to
implement this.
