What did you do?

I have code like below:

package a

type M struct {
}

and used by some package:

package main

func main() {
        _ = &a.M{}
}

Can we have a code action on the M sruct named move to other package (like: package b), and then update the reference &a.M{} in main package to &b.M{}

Thank you for the issue, and apologies for our slow response.

We discussed this in our triage meeting, and while it would be a very useful feature it's a bit tricky to implement in the LSP (see microsoft/language-server-protocol#1164).

I think we could have a custom command (via the workspace/executeCommand API, but it would require each LSP client to implement the UI for manually editing the command before sending.

Putting this in our queue to think about: I think it would be great to develop a framework for this type of refactoring.
