[Feature Request] Method Signature Refactoring

[DreamFulFil]

All prevalent IDEs such as Eclipse, IntelliJ, Netbeans provides a way to refactor method signatures. It would be nice to have such a feature implemented in VSCode since the methods are usually spread across the entire project, and currently no such refactoring actions are supported(checked the documentation and opened/closed issues). Visual Studio seems to have such an existing feature

Thank you for the hard work.

It should be possible, but the tricky part is creating a UI around it. We could probably have a look at https://git.eclipse.org/c/jdt/eclipse.jdt.ui.git/tree/org.eclipse.jdt.ui/ui%20refactoring/org/eclipse/jdt/internal/ui/refactoring/ChangeSignatureWizard.java as a start point.

I'm also anxiously awaiting this feature. How is feature work prioritized? Can we vote somewhere?

This is now implemented in the Netbeans language server plugin: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ASF.apache-netbeans-java

That plugins has other issues however, so I hope we will get this soon.
