Remove block shortcut?

I've wanted something like this, especially for removing method calls
like outer(inner(x)) -> outer(x). I usually end up doing Ctrl-W, Ctrl+X,
CtrlW, CtrlV as a workaround though.

synchronized (blub) { <stuff here> }

I'd like to place the cursor on synchronized and have the statement
plus closing brace removed and the block <stuff here> unindented.
Kind of an inverse "surround with" functionality.

I guess it's there, but I didn't find it... Can anybody point me to
the right place?

Hello Dirk,

There's no such action implemented though simple tip exists: Do Ctrl+W until
block content is selected then CtrlX then a few more CtrlW to select (now
empty) synchronized statement and finally Ctrl+V.

Or - if you don't want to clutter your clipboard - highlight the block
content, then do Ctrl-Shift-Up (or Down) and then remove the empty
synchronized statement.

Should have looked before posting. It's IDEABKL-3053 (and some
duplicates).

I'll give it a try. Thanks, Bas.
