I understand your curiosity @Skif-off , it is not only rewording/shortening of 
translatable strings:
- Close buttons have been removed
- 'Close dialog' translatable string label has been replaced by 'X' not to be 
translated
- It is all buttons having one letter (+ gtk stock icon) corresponding to the 
mnemonic,
ex: N for 'Alt+N' replacing  'Replace & Find' (thus having the same size 
whatever language in use)
that have the most impact on final global size
- Yes, to achieve shortening of checkboxes label in other languages,
new 'to be re-translated' sentences are needed following a documented (in 
comments) way:
ex: 'Match only a whole word' -> 'whole word'
this is what I meant with "(understanding it might need adjustments for 
translation ?)" as a kind of TODO:

..On my side, I have automated since long these changes via a debian patch 
whenever a new version pops in debian;
I just wanted to share it here as a maybe source of inspiration for a 
find&replace dialog 
not eating screen space and masking the file content..

Happy to discuss it anyway!
