I could imagine that you need it so that you can change repetitive
strings like "Richard>", in the paragraph after the next, immediately
in one go, which you would otherwise have to hear at any new line?

Wouldn't it be helpful to have also some sort of interactivity as in
isearch-forward for replace-string like catching the string(s) before
point (maybe bounded by the word boundary "\<")?
