--- Comment #1 from V Stuart Foote <vsfoote at libreoffice.org> ---
Sorry, not seeing the need.

On open the dialog, cursor focus is in the Find field

Three <Tabs> (to pass over find configuration check-boxes) to position to the
Replace field

Cursor <Down> (or up) to fill items from Replacement stack.

This is functional, both with mouse pointer and with keyboard selection.

Also, it is risk free.  With nothing selected for the replacement string--no
inadvertent replacement can occur (necessitation UNDO if caught, or loss of
data if not).

I suppose we could refactor to optionally prefill the replace field--but it
would need to be off by default and an Expert configuration. Not clear it is
worth the effort or risk to the "Benjamin" users.

IMHO => WF
