How can we improve InDesign?

Add a Find/Replace function for things like tabs

Received a file with hundreds of useless tabs. Can replace in Word (and should have but didn't see them til I Placed in InDesign) but it would be a nice feature to add.

Try to click the "@" right to SearchFor or ReplaceWith. Here you can access some wildcards, like "^t" for a tab, to search/replace.

I search/replace tabs all the time in ID. What's the reason you can't replace these?
