Take a look at the Smalltalk Refactoring Browser; they have completely 
separated the refactoring from the IDE. Each refactoring is a separate class.

And there is an adapter layer that provides an API for the metamodel: 
RBClass, RBMethod, etc.

The parse tree matching and rewrite rules are also separate classes.

Here are the Squeak categories and classes:
