Jupyter find and replace with capturing groups

[j824h]

In Jupyter Notebooks, finding witrh regex works but replacing with capturing groups doesn't.
I'd like if it does.

I tried
float\((.*)\)
$1
as in the usual editor, but the replacement treats $1 as literal.
I had to work around by copying the code section to the usual editor, and then find and replace.

This seems like an inconsistent UX, and personally quite inconvinient.

Thanks again for the help, it makes the find experience in notebook closer to the normal text editor one.
