Yep!
The search string of the replace vmethod can contain all modifiers
which are allowed in perl itself. The only additional trick you need
to use is to interpolate your variable into the regular expression:
[% entry.dbid.replace("(?i:$query)", "<b>$query</b>") %]
You did already take care for oddities like pattern metacharacters in
your query variable, did you? ;-)
