REQUEST: Code Explorer rename variables... in WeBuilder 2006

Hi, I was wondering if it were possible to write in the ability to change the variable names in the Code Explorer. I am talking about for PHP as that is really the only thing that I have used WeBuilder 2006 for. Basically, so that I could right-click on the variable name and have the option to rename which would change all instances of the variable name to the new name that I create (throughout my file). I think it would be a great feature, how about you?

Wouldn't that be very similar to 'Search' -> 'Replace...' ? If you've a variable called '$cabbages' and you want to change it to '$onions', all you have to do is press CTRL + R, enter $cabbages for the 'Search for' field, and then type '$onions' in the 'Replace with' box, and click 'Replace All'.

Yes, I guess, but since it is already coded (in a way) it wouldn't be too hard to incorporate it into my idea.
