In the past others have complained specifically about the search flags getting in the way of searches that are conducted without using the Find window (where those flags are easily seen and changed if needed). An example is the Select-and-Find-Next feature–it will use the search flags as previously set, but this may not be what the user wants at that moment. Perhaps @David-Bailey is alluding to that situation, I don’t know.
In general, though, I am used to editors that allow you to set search flag defaults–all new searches that you initiate start out with the flags set that way, and along with specifying your search text you are able to alter the flags for the specific search you are doing at the moment. I like this idea and it would be a great thing to see in Notepad++ but I don’t hold out any hope for ever seeing it. :)
configurable (remember search flags: yes/no)
I could also get behind this idea. :)
