Hey John,
You can search/replace in the only the selection with AppleScript:
----------------------------------------------------------------
tell application "BBEdit"
tell selection
replace ".+" using "••••" options {search mode:grep}
end tell
end tell
----------------------------------------------------------------
You cannot (un)set the checkbox in the Find dialog – at least not without an
AppleScript-Runner utility like FastScripts or Keyboard Maestro.
(BBEdit's own script menu doesn’t like UI-Scripting BBEdit.)
