I tried to move a static method from jdt.ui to a test class in jdt.ui.tests.refactoring. This didn't work because the target class could not be resolved.

We should allow moving static members to dependent projects. Give a warning in the initial dialog in this case (members will not be accessible from the declaring project any more) and a non-fatal error if there are references that won't compile after refactoring.
