.) Select a code passage and 'Introduce Method'
.) If there are too many return values, a popup is displayed saying 'Too many return values'

Expected: 
It would be MUCH more helpful to actually see a list of return variables that are problematic. This would greatly improve the search process. Otherwise I'd have to manually go through the whole section and find them myself, which is really tedious especially if there code section is longer.

Interesting. Incidentally there's already a similar occurrences support: place caret on the method's return type, and all exit statements (returns and throws) will be highlighted. Not exactly the same as this issue, but will help a little.
