+another, subword navigation

Would prefer not having the rename-popup, but just perform the rename in the text-editor (Like before).

Confusing for me that the word I have chosen to rename, suddenly appear in a new window that is placed one inch away from the word that I want to rename. Distracts me from the task at hand.

Just perform the rename without the popup-dialog. If needing advanced rename options, then just put them in the existing rename-dialog (Ex. the one in the top-right corner). This will also fix the issue witht the popup-dialog being placed outside the editor-window, and becomes partially hidden (renaming in the blind).

Also annoying that when adding delegate to event EventHandler (writing +=), then by default it would give a delegate-name-suggestion, and then one could press "tab"-key a few times and then the cursor would be placed in the beginning of the newly created method. Now one is stuck inside the rename-popup, and nothing happens when pressing "tab"-key.

The rename dialog does not work properly with the shortcut to make the next character or a selection to lower or UPPER case. It ignores the selection and always changes the case of the entire name. See this animated GIF:
