Code Editor: "Rename Symbol" feature

Feature description:

  • Within the code editor, right-click on the name of a variable, class, function, etc. and select "Rename Symbol".
  • A small window pops up with a field containing the old name, and when you press enter, it would rename the right-click element.

Basically, it's something similar to what is found in Visual Studio Code.

This would be quite complex…

This would be quite complex to implement right.

I think the feature before this is to support jump to declaration for non-static entries for good enough AST awareness
