Wow, that's impressive! And with so little code, great.

I don't know when I (or other devs) find time, but i'll probably add
this piece of code to CVS.

Some notes (party to myself, or to any other who wants to merge that
with vimperator CVS):

1.) var tab = ...; Acutally just using window.content should be enough.
2.) with changing getElements... to an XPath query
    (vimperator.buffer.evaluateXPath()), the code could even be made
    more compact
3.) Better documentation :)
4.) command is s[ubstitute] not just "s";
5.) Maybe we should just substitute the text in the last input field?
And only in all textboxes with (harder) :%s/.../../ or (easier) :s!/foo/bar/

However, these are just small nit picks, thanks a lot for that piece of
code.
