I would like to be able to promote the encapsulation of variables from where the variable is declare to protected/public.
Every time I encapsulate a variable I then have to move it. You could have a window like the Create Similar Member window and have a radio button so you can decided whether to make it public, protected or private. I feel that the default should be what ever the last time the feature was used was.
This is ideal to help you re-order items in a class.
The problem with saying you want the functions to be public or protected is which public block do they go into? Often a class will have more than one, and some people have very strong opinions on how they want the functions in their classes to be ordered / grouped.
True. Myself I pretty rigorously enforce 1 block for each, and descend public, protected, private and only the public and protected functions are documented.
