As a user of Notepad++ on Windows (regrettably, my day job lately is a Windows environment), which is a Scintilla-based editor, I have frequently noticed that the regexp support is very limited. For instance it cannot replace repeated blank lines with a single blank line, as perl can do:

   s/\n{3,}/\n\n/

Why not implement the pcre library (perl compatible regular expressions)?
