If you have following piece of code:

   public JTextComponent getTextComponent() {
     JTextField textField = new JTextField();
     textField.selectAll();
     return textField;
   }

it would be fine to go set the cursor of the JTextField type definition 
(not the constructor!) and invoke "Change Type". This checks all usages of 
the variable (read and write) and offers you a list of possible types, that 
would not break the code. In the above example, I would like to get 
JTextComponent and JTextField offered but in more complex code, there could 
be much more.

The same would be useful for the return value of methods.
