The example i've given is a good example where find and replace isn't a great 
option.
In fact, you don't want to use find and replace to change a function parameter, 
because it will be tedious to change all function calls with named parameter 
accross your call. That's why refactoring tools exist.
I agree, that Pycharm find and replace is very nice (especially using regex), 
but I use it only for modify copy-pasted things with regex, never for 
refactoring.

By the way, I like your "hack", but as you say it's not very fantastic; maybe 
it deserve an official simplification.
