Title: "Find and Replace" feature

I added a form for "find and replace feature".
http://sourceforge.net/p/phpmyadmin/feature-requests/1405/
The form is shown under insert tab and in the ajax page for multiple row editing.

You can search in each column in a table edit page for a string, word or column entry and replace them easily with this.
No confirmation was added as user can reset changes by clicking "reset all" button and has to click on "Go" button to update values.

upgrading after your comments:
-making form minimize when loading the page as this feature is not always used
-making the form more attractive
-making this form or buttons always visible though a user scrolls the page.
-making dialog boxes for messages instead of using alerts.
-making the operations faster by improving the code.
