[Torsten Lilge]

                  Status:             In Progress => Ready For Test

Follow-up Comment #6:

>From my tests, the remaining issue is in qscintilla's way to search in
selections. Since we already have a workaround for another issue in this case,
I decided to drop the use of findFirstInSelection () and handle the search in
a given selection by gui's code. The related changeset
http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/fbe46901ae62
was pushed to the default branch, since this is a complete redesign of the
search & replace in selected text. As a positive side effect, we can drop a
configuration test for Qt's abilities.

I leave the report open since I would like to cherry-pick this patch into
stable is there are no complains about side effects I was missing during my
tests.
