To me all three points above are because you are trying to use dt in a
way it was not design to be. dt is a all-in-one tool that also manage
your collections so you never want to do anything with the images behind
the scene. The moving can be done in dt. Then having the xmp next to the
image or in a sub-directory is not an issue since you just don't see
them. And doing the move in dt also move the .xmp, again no issue in
this case.

To me dt and lightroom (I've been using lightroom extensively) are on
par here.

Yes undo is laking at the moment. That's one difference indeed. Would be
nice if you could provide patches on this area.
