Pleaaaaaaase make this happen. My codex is a lore dump full of half-formed brain vomit that coalesces as I iterate. I use placeholder names and terms to avoid getting held up trying to come up with the right term and interrupting my overall creative flow. Manually going back to update things is painful.

Hope this is coming soon, like TOMORROW soon please haha. I just worked around this. If anyone needs to change a name of something, this was my methodology:
- Create an "other" codex entry (try to organize all other entries under a category, so this one is left alone).
- The entry should be tracked, that's only you need to make this work.
- BEFORE REPLACING: change the entry you want to correct to the new name, or it will overlap.
- Look for every instance the word appears in EVERY PLACE (Manuscript, Codex Details, Research, Mentions and snippets, I'm glad it doesn't track on chats, or it would be a mess.) You'll go to the Mentions tab for this. I recommend starting with replacing the instances in the codex entries and summaries, then snippets, then you can go on to the manuscripts for a better workflow.
Hope this helps somebody until we have this feature.

Totally nuts. Who thought omitting search and replace was anything less than absurd?
