Description Marian Petras 2007-09-01 20:47:13 UTC
When Find Usages is invoked on a private field, it still asks for search scope (the particular module or all open
projects). I think this is not necessary, as private fields cannot be used outside of the current class.

If you also offered the option not to ask "Search in Comments?", the dialogue could be completely avoided under certain
conditions (e.g. find usages of a private field/method) which would significantly improved the work flow.
