I like a lot these drag'n'drop refactorings. 2013/5/24 Sean P. DeNigris <sean@clipperadams.com>

Actually when I use Pharo I use the mouse quite a lot
Actually, me too. But only because I don't know any good ways to do what I want with the keyboard :/
On the opposite, I use a lot of shortcut to develop with Pharo. The most common ones are : Cmd h,a,s (Create and save the accessors of a class) Cmd h,i (Create the initialize method of a class) Cmd r,m (Rename a method and all its send sites) ... Right now you need either to look in the menu or in the shortcut list on the top right arrow of Nautilus to know what you can do. I guess the best for shortcuts would be to have something like helios IDE in amber, where using shortcuts become trivial with the "shortcut bar" at the bottom.

I have the feeling that I'm not the only one using a lot the mouse, and interactions like these would get along very well with that common user behaviour.
+1
Yeah not so many people use Nautilus shortcuts. I know only Camillo who really use them and he taught me.

We actually already have some drag & drop refactorings, like moving a method from one class to another one :)
True. It'd be great to document all the cool UI things, especially the new ones. I guess I have no idea half the things I'm able to do in the IDE...
+ 1. Recently for example I discover that if you open a scoped browser (a browser on only a subset of packages), then the refactoring engine works only the scoped packages. You can then for example rename a method only in this subset of packages. However, it is always hard to document this kind of things. Where, what functionality, who will read this ..
