'Refactor - Extract Method' support in constructor class body

I'd like to be able to extract methods in the class body (implicitly part of the primary constructor body).

While this feature is supported, it doesn't remove the selected lines of code - resulting in an party done refactoring.

class ExtractMethodTest(nums: Int*){
  
  var sum = 0
  for (num <- nums)
    sum += num
  
  println(sum)
}

object ExtractMethodTest extends App{
  new ExtractMethodTest()
  new ExtractMethodTest(5)
  new ExtractMethodTest(1, 1, 2, 3, 5)
}

Do you want this assigned to you directly?

I agree, that would be a nice enhancement. What makes it slightly more complicated than an ordinary extract method is that we mustn't extract definitions that are used from anywhere else in the program. But in principle, this shouldn't be too hard.
