1) Create some form (JFrame)

3) Generate add actionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {} event handler there (popup menu on JButton > Events >
Actions...)
4) write System.out.println (evt);
5) try to rename evt variable (Ctrl-R)
> second usage of evt variable is renamed only.
Code is broken...

handler parameter' in http://wiki.netbeans.org/GUIBuilderRefactoring
