This is a welcome feature, thank you for working on it.  I'm looking
forward to it!

Do you think an option to see both the match and the replacement
(instead of just the replacement) makes sense? They can be separated by
an arrow key and use different faces, something like in the attached
screenshot.

Maybe this is one of the features Juri mentioned can be added later?
