Sugestion - search and replace with custom lists (create or import from txt)

Docs
1

I want to create or import search and replace lists to make this task faster and more automated. For example: if a document uses one type of abbreviations and I want to replace all or some of them with another type of abbreviation, with these lists would be much easier and faster.

Hello
In my case, I often need to change abbreviations of the books of the Bible that differ between publications and the language of the document. So instead of replacing one by one, I liked to create (or import) an automatic search and replace list to change all the abbreviations at once.
I hope I’m explaining myself well. Thanks

Thanks. In a search I had already done, this was a requested functionality in many places but only possible by VBA or third-party applications like Kutools for word or Trans Tools Multiple Find & Replace.
