Description fiala.premysl 2015-10-01 09:32:29 UTC 
Simplified scenario:

1... $x = 1;
2... $x++;
3... $x = $x +1;
4... echo $x;

There is a warning about multiple assigment (line 3).

I want to rename variable $x. So put (mouse or arrows) cursor on variable $x on line 3.

Press Alt+R
now all $x are selected (lines 1-4). So the renaming toll can't be used here.

It would be much nicer to:
Select only left side of assigment AND the following $x (first $x on line 3 and $x on line 4). Previous $x (and right side of assigment) will be left untouch.

Condition: Select variable to rename AND the multiple assigment hint is present on it (line 3)
