Refactor->Rename NodeJS file does not change package.json

Hi,

First-time poster here.

When I do Refactor->Rename on a NodeJS javascript file, I was expecting the reference to it in package.json to be changed as well.   For example, these should be changed if I renamed the server.js file to app.js:

"main": "server.js"
"start": "node server.js"

Shouldn't they?

In the Rename dialog, I have "Search for references", "Search in comments and strings" and "Search for text occurrences" checked.

Thanks for your attention.
