Escaped chars in replacement for Search and Replace step

The replace box of the SnR items does not treat
n,
t as escaped chars. I realize we can enter them with real CR+LF and tab, but it seems very counter-intuitive. It would be nice to have some level of support for escaping special characters when regex is set. Something similar to the things one can do in the search.

I had the opposite realization: when I wanted to leave the search field to enter the replace field, I used tab but that would just produce a tab in the search field. Same for Enter etc.

It is indeed confusing.

I've added support for
n,
r,
t and
N in the regex-enabled replacement field.
