Christian,
thank you for raising these issues here.
Conflicts caused by renaming have already been addressed
in build #632 (which is currently available).
I very much appreciate any bug reports on name collisions
that IDEA fails to detect.
Our goal for Ariadna is to detect 100% conflicts caused by
renaming (and other refactorings).
As to your particular requests,

This will be implemented in #633 (next build).

This is already implemented in #632.

This is also implemented in #632.

General policy in IDEA concerning conflicts is such that it warns you
about possible conflicts, but lets you continue the refactoring and
face the consequences (or, of course, cancel). So you will still be able
to "use these effects to save you some work".
