I just realized that Pages seems to have no support for Regular Expression search.
As an example, I have a 200-page document where I needed to standardize the dates. The dates were either "yyyy-mm-dd" or "dd/mm/yy" formatted. A regular expression search like the free LibreOffice can do was perfect, but no such support appears to be in Pages. From my experience, I don't recall that even Word supports Regular Expression search either so perhaps this is just an example of where LibreOffice has a cool feature not found in the other products?
Find and Replace Dialog from LibreOffice using Regular Expression Search (I love this!):
