Have simple ReplaceAll and ReplaceFirst functions that dont use RegExp in addition to the ones currently available

5

In quite a number of apps that I develop, I simply need to substitute parameters in a string with a value.

The parameters are put in the text as {text_to_replace}.

With the ReplaceAll function I get Mendix system errors if the variable in which the text needs to be replaced contains brackets or other special characters.

In a recent forum post this problem is also described.

Can we just get a function StringReplaceAll that simply accepts (Source, TextToReplace, ReplacementText) and doesn't use RegExp?
