Yes, I have the same association. But am "Am Anfang fortfahren" or "Am Ende
von vorn beginnen" (Notepad++) you can only say if you do a forward search. 

But with both "Wrap around" *and* "Find backwards" checked, TeXworks will
search to the beginning and will continue at the end. So in this case "Wrap
around" is still correct, but "Am Anfang fortfahren" would be wrong. 

As we have no exact translation for "wrap around" (yes, "umbrechen" is
horrible) I think "Im ganzen Dokument" or "Ganzes Dokument" is the best
solution. 

And, after all, the user will quickly realize that the search (or replace) in
TeXworks always starts at the cursor and not at the beginning of the document.
In the case of "Replace all" it’s rather irrelevant anyway.
