Feature Request: Exclude patterns from search and replace #522

I would appreciate it if there were a field where you could exclude names to be excluded from replacement. For example, you could enter your parents' name in a box so that the last name does not get replaced.

Loving this suggestion @Amberarch! My initial thought is to let the user specify a regex pattern to exclude, but I also know that might not be accessible for users who don't have experience with regex. Definitely putting this on my list of something to implement, although it will probably take a while to get to.
