That's great to hear. BTW, you don't actually need to move that back,
as you can issue "darcs mv a b" *after* a "mv a b"... I still think
it's something [what originally asked] that can maybe be alleviated,
but not solved completely (consider directory renames, or a
complicated reorg of the sources). ... OTOH, I think this is something
git does/tries to do, doesn't it?
