PyCharm refactoring tool?

It's pretty useful. I use it for some time now and I very much like it.

There are some things that might not be available on Python because of it's
duck typing behavior (Pycharm perhaps can't confirm that the type is
boolean to suggest it's inversion, for instance).

The most powerful for me are the rename refactor and extract. Works like
charm (no pun intended).
