That is basically what I did for the non problematic replacements.  The ones that not only need the captured text, but also need the rest of the text I didn't bother implementing

Thanks.

This requires having a parser for the replacer too, which is not something we currently have.

The QRegularExpressionMatch result gives you all the regions in the string where captures were found, so you can  do this yourself if you know your captures.
