Description
### Description
Within a Spring configuration file you often have beans defined such as
``
It should be possible within the Spring file editor to Ctrl + Click on the class attribute and have netbeans navigate to or Select the class file within the project.
Used to be in much older releases.
### Use case/motivation
The ability to control click on the class attribute content of the spring configuration xml file should select the class in projects and jump to the class
Ability to press space bar after a class and it auto completes the fully qualified class name into the class attribute content of the bean tag.

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the Spring configuration editor support in NetBeans and reproduce the missing Ctrl+Click navigation and class-name completion; done means both behaviors work for a fully qualified class in a bean's class attribute.
