Find and replace: Consecutive occurrences are skipped

When I have 12 spaces in a row (
), and want to replace chunks of four spaces (
) by a tab (\t
), every second occurrence of that chunk gets skipped.
So after pressing “Replace” I first get \t
, then \t \t
(note that the third chunk got replaced instead of the second one). Builder needs to loop the whole file a second time, to replace the skipped ones, then I finally get \t\t\t
.
