Search and replace dialog appears modal over the page, which gets obscured. This means among other things that the user cannot change the textarea while the dialog is open.
This is not a problem for Replace all, but when the user is doing find next / replace next, the text is hard to view, and cannot be scrolled or unmodified (to back out one replace next, change the focus to skip the point where it continues...).
Version: unspecified
Severity: major
Still no progress on this?
How is the user supposed to do repetitive changes to wikipages?
These problems adds lots of unnecessary clicks to these kind of tasks which the 'search and replace' feature is supposed to help editors with.
Anyone have a smart CSS check to differentiate between modal and non modal jquery dialogs ? Cause we might want to add a black border around that dialog to raise contrast a bit.
