Description

Just what it says. A way to point at a Unit and say "Rename the unit to X" and everything will compile correctly.

Steps to Reproduce:

None

Workarounds

You can do "save as", but that doesn't fix up any references to that Unit in the "Uses" clause. You have to fix them by hand.

Note that if you rename the file in the project manager, the unit will be renamed (but the rename will not be reflected accross the rest of your project).

That's sort of the same issue. It should ask if the project shall be updated as well and then rename all references in other units.
