The "Rename Symbol under Cursor" action does not handle read-only files (it simply skips them). If the file happens to be open in the editor, the edit is made in memory and the user has the option to make the file writable and save. Otherwise, the file is skipped. For users of VCS systems that make files read-only unless they are checked out, this makes the feature unusable.
One solution would be to either automatically, or using some option, open all read-only files in the editor and allow me to manually make each writeable. An even better option would allow me to tell creator to make all read-only files writeable. -Kris Wong
