It is clear that this tool should work only on one layer which is on editing 
mode

I agree that a tool should be saver that useful sometimes, but in other times 
semplicity should be more preferible. I think that a find/substitute tool would 
be easier to use than 2 tools for many users and less cryptical: I know enough 
to use Openjump in a professional way but right now I didn't pick up that 
"select"/"Autoassign attribute" would be exactly what I needed /Find/replace :-(
