How to invoke refactoring dialog (not refactoring itself)?

I want to simulate like the user just selected a certain element and pressed F6.
I can see how to create the dialog, and I can see how to invoke move
refactoring, but I don't feel comfortable writing the code between the two
myself. I would also like to avoid manually selecting the desired items to be
moved in the tree. Is there some way to do this easily, or some suggested not so
easy way?

The RefactoringActionHandler interface encapsulates the entire refactoring
process - the dialog, the refactoring itself and everything in between. To
invoke the Move refactoring, you need to call RefactoringActionHandlerFactory.createMoveHandler()
and then call invoke() on the returned RefactoringActionHandler.
