Description ecerichter 2013-03-16 23:08:36 UTC 
Product Version = NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 201303142300)
Operating System = Windows 7 version 6.1 running on amd64
Java; VM; Vendor = 1.7.0_17
Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 23.7-b01

When using Refactor -> Encapsulate fields, developer usually click in Select All.
In the event of the class having serialVersionUID defined, this should not be selected.
I've seen no case in more than 18 years of Java programming to create setter/getter for serialVersionUID.
Since this is a special attribute with special meaning and already have special treatment by IDE (like "Generate serialVersionUID..." actions), then this dialog should also be more precise.

Thanks,

Edson
