Add Include in the Refactor menu is quite useful feature, I think it might be better if you can display it like Add Include "MyHeader.h" such that we could be aware exactly which header file is going to be added to the inclusion.
By the way, maybe you could provide a new option to control whether or not display the symbol location (the file & line that contains its definition) on the tooltip window.
If you use the VA Refactor context menu then the name of the header file to include is shown in the menu. You get this by hovering the mouse over the symbol and pressing on the down arrow symbol that appears, or by placing the caret into the symbol and pressing Alt-Shift-Q
Since this is a dynamic menu we are free to show the file name. The main IDE menu is much more fixed and much less fluid.
I don't understand your point about showing the symbol location. Are you after the file and line in VA's context and definition fields, which are normally shown at the top of the editor? Or somewhere else? Also how much use is this? If you want the full file path and line you can simply use Alt-g on the symbol and jump to this location.
