Changing the behaviour of search functions is not a good idea as
some spreadsheets surely depend on the existing, hopefully Excel
compatible, behaviour.
That leaves you pretty much four options:
1. Write your own plugin with search functions that do what you
want. That's actually not too hard, but is not a generally
useful option.
2. Wait for us to implement scripting. That's basically what you
need here.
3. Write a plugin that allows you to feed a range to a script and read
the converted range from the output. The best way for that
probably is to file an enhancement request at bugzilla.gnome.org
as the details probably should be spec'd out with some care.
4. Write a script that reads and produces Gnumeric's xml format.
That's not too hard either.
