That frustrating Refactor... command

Xcode's Refactor feature is very useful. Unfortunately the contextual-menu command for it seems to enable and disable at random, and quite a lot of the time that I want to rename a class/ivar/method it remains stubbornly grayed-out, even though I've used it in the same circumstances earlier. (As an example, yesterday it let me rename two classes in a project, but not two others that were nearly identical. I have no idea why.)

Is this a known bug, or are there just some deep subtleties to when refactoring will or won't work? If the latter, it would be really nice if instead of disabling the command, Xcode would put up an alert explaining why it couldn't refactor.
