RFE: Do not strip out formatting when using the Expand your search feature

When using the Expand your search feature, the Expanded Search String output is stripped of any custom formatting, particularly newlines.

When expanding a search, the macro should be expanded  and inserted verbatim instead and the formatting should be retained in the Expanded Search String pane.
