Actually it'd be nice to have an option for the replacements to be highlighted so I could see the places it made changes I didn't mean (does that often happen to you with change all?? :-)
Could be useful, although maybe better if the replacements were listed in the Messages window so you don't have to scroll through the whole document.
The problem with listing them is that there is no context, some erroneous changes will be obvious from the change, some won't, so I will be wanting to go to the changed line so I'd expect that the message would act like a compile error and allow click to go to the line.
Yes, you could go to the line. I see your point though, that the list might not be useful if the context is important, but there may be enough cases where the line is enough. Not sure yet how the UI would expose this behaviour.
