for example to toggle regex matching something like alt+r, then toggle search in selection, alt+s, etc... I hate to use the mouse and select them when I'm typing the pattern to find/replace... e-text had this.

+1. I do a lot of find/replace and want keyboard shortcuts to toggle the find/replace options. It helps my productivity a lot.

Key bindings for the find / replace panels are in the 20091017 beta - also, open-furthest-to-the-right is available via editing Preferences/General Preferences

I have a file with about 90k characters and sublime really slows down with loading the file as well as copying and pasting large chunks of code. Just kinda of curious what part of the program slows it down so much and if that is something that could be fixed in the future?

you can try two options that was raised in the past: first is to temporarily turn off syntax highlighting (change file syntax to 'plain text'), the other option is to turn off minimap (alt+m). this is not to underestimate this issue, which i think deserves better attention and a more robust solution from sublime side.

Changing the syntax highlighting to plain text should be the answer.

The issue here is that Sublime Text always keeps the syntax highlighting information about the buffer fully up to date, which results in a bunch of wasted work doing calculations for text that won't be displayed. It's on the todo list to change this to a lazy evaluation model.

What encoding does Sublime save a new file as? Does it just use the fallback encoding setting?

Also is there anyway to tell what an opened file's encoding is?

If you hover over the tab for the file in question, the status bar should show the full path and encoding. In another thread I did wonder whether encoding might be made visible in the status bar all the time, but that's just personal preference.
