I just tested this; it works for the basic case, however there are a couple of
issues with "Custom":
1) If I select "Custom", set both "Match" and "Replace with", save and then
re-open the dialog, I see that the mirror entry shows as "Standard" again. I
think the code should be checking to see if the entry fits into "Standard" form
and if not then showing it as "Custom".
2) If I select "Custom" with a path already set, I feel it should adjust the
path to be the appropriate full version that will still work (i.e. with \1 or
PATH on the end). That does mean it needs to be able to go back the other way
and probably show a warning dialog if it can't reverse it cleanly. However
this fix can wait until 1.4 if there isn't enough time IMO.
There are a couple of other minor visual issues but at this late stage I think
we can address those in 1.4.
Thanks,
Paul
