Out of curiosity, is it not possible because of a limitation in Java?

I don't think this is true all the time. When I'm in the middle of writing
code, I ususually stick to the keyboard. But when I'm browsing around and
refactoring, I often the mouse because I can scroll around a file and browse
the project hierarchy more quickly with a mouse.

But anyway, since it's technically not possible, I guess none of this matters
