Feature Request: Limit Scope of a "Find" and "Change"
#6
Here's a very easy idea for this:  

Open a second instance of the editor.
Cut out the segment you want to only search with CTRL-V.
Paste in the second instance.
Do the search or replace as necessary.  When finished, just paste it back to its original position.

I've actually done this for a lot of things, just because it was so much simpler to just edit inside a smaller workspace than it was to work inside a whole program all at once.
