Search and replace at page, application or workspace level with text replacements, easier refactoring

Idea Summary
Now you can search for text ocurrences by using the search feature at page designer level, or application or workspace level but you are not able to perform text substitutions automatically. It would be nice to be able to select some or all search results and perform a text substitution automatically. This would allow much easier refactorings without needing to export all aplications to sql files and hack them.

Use Case
Reduce dramatically the time used for text substitutions or refactors.

Preferred Solution (Optional)
Add a replace ocurrences within a search results at page designer level, app level, or workspace level searches. You would be able to make a partial or global search results selections for applying the replacement.

This request is likely a duplicate of FR-2735.
