But it is hard to say what is the issue without actually being able to reproduce the issue. I am definitely willing to look at problems with (Java) refactoring, but I need to be able to reproduce them. I tried a simple testcase with renaming an interface method, and it worked - so apparently I didn't trigger the problematic part. Might be related to the JDK 9 module support (although I tried both with and without module-info), or to something else, but having a case where one can see what is going on makes chances for a fix much higher.
