  ERROR: Search/replace invalid: Search pattern is invalid: You must specify a search expression in the "Search for" field.
  
  Debug log attached.
  
  ETA. I wasn't on the search/replace tab at all. But later looking at the
  s/r tab, in the test section "Your test:" test result box is red and
  contains this:
  
  You must specify a search expression in the "Search for" field
  
  ETA2. Edit Metadata Individually, and editing in booklist, both work
  fine.
