When I try to rename fields that are persistent Idea pops up a dialog.
I have no idea what difference it will make if I click "Yes" or "No".
Even if I click "Yes" the field gets renamed, so the question seems just wrong.
If I search for usages the same question is asked, but the find results are exactly the same.
So please clarify what exactly you want me to answer and probably add a "Help" button.

In build 7782 the dialog has been enhanced to create even more confusion - see screenshot.
The preview shows exactly the results, regardless of how I answer the dialog.
In each case the preview says
Field to be renamed to _version, Version to be renamed to _version
Shouldn't it just ask whether to rename column "version", too?
Or maybe the best way would be to have two separate text fields in the rename dialog - one for the java class and one for the column (so that I can rename from field "invoiceNo" with column "invoice_no" to invoiceNumber/invoice_number?
