Issue Description

let user add modifiers per search

Use Case

mostly i look for case independent searches, but sometimes i need a search with match case. just now i have to open the options dialog.

How to implement

allow user enter a regex with this syntax: /pattern/[modifiers]
if it in this format, then the default modifiers from options are disabled

I had considered implementing this in the early stages of the project, but decided against it since I anticipated much confusion around that functionality. I might look into this again at some point when I have some free time, I have a few ideas that might be good compromises. Thanks for your interest!
