    Description

      When using the refactoring: "Rename Symbol under Cursor" the rename dialog does not show the found occurrences until another name is typed in.

      So no matches, why should I type in a replacement name for the symbol?

       

      Actually, when you enter a new name for the symbol you do not see the replacements, you see the occurrences of the symbol .. but not replaced:
