I probably found a discrepancy in the StringReplacer but would like to check.
In the Attributes field not only Attributes but also User Parameters are selectable. Nothing seems to happen, and I think this is correct behaviour, or am I missing something?
Checked in Workbench 2018.1.1.0

FME expects that parameter to be one or more attribute names that are to be processed by the StringReplacer. If you add a source dataset and use that parameter to pick an attribute from it, it works as intended.
So FME doesn't change the value of the user parameter and the way I see it, that's expected behaviour.

I understand and agree. But if you can not change the Parameters, you should not be able to be select them?
