Description Max Gilead

There are different tools presented when trying to refactor->move top-level interface and sub-interface. The former can only be moved to another package and the latter can only be moved to another class. While it's possible to refactor sub-interface to top-level interface in another package by converting it to top-level interface first it's not possible at all to refactor top-level interface to sub-interface.

I suggest to add a refactoring to move interface (or class for that matter) to a sub-interface/sub-class of another interface/class.

..and yet another tool is presented when trying to move concrete sub-class.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. As such, we're closing this bug.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it and reopen this bug. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
