Thanks for the patch! This probably makes sense, but I have mixed feelings about a patch that removes a minor inconsistency and introduces a bug. I fully agree that it's not worth the effort to fix it (i.e., update the "..." if the "Rename Inline" setting has changed), but still, some people will notice it, and it might not be obvious that it depends on the state of that setting at startup. Therefore, I'd like to know if there is any evidence that this inconsistency is a problem for anyone? And if it is, we could just remove the "..." without any check at all. Inline renaming is the default after all (and I start thinking that we should probably not have added an option for it).
