It doesn't make any difference as the file that is moved is the one  
that was on the disk, TM keeps an alias to it and doesn't have to  
care where it is.

You can also rename the file without anything getting lost. All in  
all life is MUCH better for the user.

Looking forward to seeing this, it is sadly missing. On the cocoa- 
carbon issue, I note that subethaedit handles file moves and renames  
transparently, and i am pretty sure it is cocoa. Perhaps they went to  
the trouble of using the carbon wrappers under cocoa, but perhaps  
there is another way to get this feature, which exists already?
