Description Jiri Prox 2013-10-09 08:39:27 UTC

When applying 'Rename field' hint, which is provided when field hides another field, the rename refactoring is invoked. But on the first panel there is waring that the field hides another field.
IMHO this warning is redundant in this use case, since the user already knows this fact. That's why he tied to apply this hint.
