Description fommil 2009-05-05 14:08:17 UTC 
(copied from gsporar in issue 89258)

If I type this in:

    int val = abs(55);

I get an error and an editor hint that offers to create a method called abs().

I would like to also get an editor hint that offers to do a static import of java.lang.Math.abs (and perhaps another hint for a static import of java.lang.Math.*).

Note that this is related to issue 164487. Instead of scanning the entire classpath, the user provides the list of classes to scan. There could be a lot of noise 
without user preference.

The same as issue #71249, IMO.
