The essay question I have is this:
"It would be great to save regexes from the find & replace dialog. Discuss."
Indirectly you can do this by recording a macro, then run your Replace All [in Selection] and you have a macro performing just that replacement (you can save it and either give it a key equivalent or a meaningful name so you can easily recall it via ⌃⌘T).
[...] As an aside - 10 regexes aren't really enough in the dialog either ;-) is there a way of upping them?
Currently not, no. There will be find clipboard history mimicking current clipboard history in next major update (should be out in 2009 but that’s the closest I’ll get to an ETA :) ), so it’s an area that will be improved.
