Please consider adding the ability to find all lines of text which do NOT contain the regular expression entered in the "extended" and "regular expression" alternatives within the find dialog. Most greps offer this, using "-v" as the command line argument, and a similar check box within the find dialog would be very useful.

  I agree. This would be very useful.
