Description

Would it be possible to get the replace dialog to support [case conversion](https://www.regular-expressions.info/replacecase.html) e.g. with `/L` and `/U`? Regex in find/replace is really powerful and it'd be a nice feature to help with big bulk renames.

Research direction

The feature belongs in the replace dialog and its regex find/replace handling; start by tracing that UI flow in the Vue plugin and checking how replacement text is currently processed. Done means supporting the requested /L and /U case-conversion syntax for bulk renames, with behavior consistent with the linked reference.
