Research direction
Investigate the plugin's current language support implementation, typically found in lua/refactoring/ directory. Review existing language definitions (e.g., for JavaScript, Python) to understand the pattern. Check the comments in the issue for any maintainer guidance on how to add Rust. Research Rust's abstract syntax tree (AST) to determine appropriate refactoring actions such as extract variable, rename, etc. Implement the necessary language specific configuration and test with Neovim.
