[...] Anyway, shouldn't TextMate be able to track folder changes? I don't understand why it has to get all confused just because I move or rename a folder.
Because it is representing files using path strings, the abstraction provided by Cocoa for this (see [1]).
I will use more Carbon APIs in 2.0. As for asking for password: when you try to save something, and it fails, TM can think it happened because you do not have the proper privileges, and so it will ask you for them, and will then retry with these -- if you know it is asking, because the path is gone, cancel the request, and TM will abort saving it.
