title: Make all identifiers more visible, types and modifiers less visible, in IntelliJ?
body: <p>FWIW, I am using IntelliJ, but this could be solved by other code viewers/editors, instead.</p>
  
  <p>What I want is a way to scroll through Java code, and make the actual freaking NAMES of things in definitions stand out, de-emphasizing all the other "important" stuff in front of the names, all the modifiers, mile-long type names and multiple mile long type names inside generic type angle brackets.</p>
  
  <pre><code>@EvenMoreComplicated @Pinky(extended=true) private static final volatile UltimateUtility&lt;Blah,Yak,Freaking,Enough&gt; theName(...
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>vs</p>
  
  <pre><code>/.../ theName... *the definition would still show here*
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I just want a way to easily see the bloody names of classes, properties, methods and local variables when I am trying to read this sludge :-(</p>
  
  <p>I'm NOT asking for the feature that highlights instances of a selected identifier.</p>
  
  <p>I'm losing the forest in the trees.  It's distracting to have to look back and forth at the tree structure viewer, which doesn't show local variables (at least in Java, somewhat in JS)</p>
  
  <p>Maybe I'm trying to solve the wrong problem?  Well, they pay me (and my coworkers) to do large portions of my work in Java, so that's the gig.</p>
