I often wondered why “go to line” doesn’t work with Ctrl+N?

If I'm reading a stack trace from a log file, sometimes I want to go to MyClass line 90, I need to go to the class first, then Ctrl+G, type '90', enter. It's a lot of keystrokes. I've often wondered why I can't type Ctrl+N, MyClass:90, enter, which opens MyClass and positions the cursor at line 90. One enhancement to this feature would be to specify a line number.

E.g. for finding ExtractClassTest you can type ExtClTe or even just ECT.

It means that you don't need to open the class before looking for references. My favourite use is simply Find Usages (Alt+F7) from a Go To Class dropdown.
