Intellij auto import for inner classes

I'm using Intellij 10.5 and I'd like to be able to use the automatic generation of import lines to allow for inner classes, but I don't see it as a settings preference. Is this possible?

Example's worth a thousand words:

public class Foo {
  public static class Bar {
  }
}

I'm writing some code that needs to use an instance of Bar:

Bar bar = new Bar();

Intellij correctly brings up Bar as one of the suggestions for importing, but when I select it, it does the following:

import package.Foo;

Foo.Bar bar = new Foo.Bar();

whereas what I'd like is:

import package.Foo.Bar;

Bar bar = new Bar();

Thanks!
