Of course "Renaming" doesn't equal refactoring (though it's one of the heavier used ones).

That's the right thing to do, isn't it? E.g. method scope for local variables, class scope for class members, global scope for class names, etc.

Please note that Qt Creator does only take files into account that are known to it, e.g. in case of source files, they must be mentioned in the loaded project. (What project type are you using?)
If ctrl+shift+R still doesn't do "the right thing" for you, best would be to report the case on bugreports.qt.nokia.com, preferably with a reproducible example, so we can investigate and fix it.

What makes you think that you can only add a suffix?
