find usages in intelliJ

If you have a method declaration like this:

public String fooBar() {
// TODO: Foo.
}

and you ctrl + click of the name (fooBar), the IDE says that you can't go to the declaration. Why? Because it is the declaration. So normal behaviour.
This is only working, if you do a ctrl + click on the call of the method:
fooBar(); So everything is fine here.

What IntelliJ does, and this ia really nice I think, when I ctrl + click on the name of the method declaration, it shows me e all usages. So I don't have to do a "Find usages", I can do it right from the method declaration. I think it's a bit what Netbeans does with inherited classes or interfaces, the little circle in front of it, where I can go to the extension, etc.

This feature would be very nice and handy to ctrl + click on any method declaration to find usages of this method. It opens in a little drop down. lools a bit like the code completion popover. You can have a look at my screen capture for this.
