Inserting line breaks with find/replace [message #121264]

Is it possible to insert line breaks with the find/replace function? For example, I'd like to replace "</td></tr>" with "</tr>\n</td>" (\n being a newline character). I've tried, but it doesn't seem to work. It can find newlines that way if regular expressions are activated, but it won't insert them. So I'm wondering, is there any way to do that in Eclipse? (short of writing a plugin or calling an external program)

Well, I guess I can answer my own question, after remembering to check the bug tracker... it's not possible, yet.
