With all that is going on in a class with refactoring and changing method names a great feature to add would be to move the methods in the class in the order specified. Such as basic sort or sort with public first, protected next and private last (I don't use default so it is not included :) This could then be extended to the variables also. This area is one of the most time consuming tasks I have espically since no current refactoring puts methods in the correct place.
There also needs to be a way of marking methods as "sticky" for the case where you are doing things like making stub methods to complete a implements.
This should be supported by navigator.
Such and similar feature(s) are described in more detail and with connection to navigator in issue 56503, so marking this one as duplicate, although this one is older. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 56503 ***
