Let’s try to do it in the whole “project” and let it be public method name of the class, extensively used across project. Visual Studio and Intellij IDEA do it instantly. What about Vim? How many plugins should I install? How many days I should spend on their configuration? What about startup time and other “fast” Vim features when it will be packed with that bunch of extensions/configurations?

I can wait 10 seconds of real editor startup time to do this and other useful features quickly, and can’t waste my life configuring Vim.
