Yes, current Admin Site doesn't include support for many modern Midgard
features. We are working now on the new version of Admin Site. There is
no code available yet.

Add small PHP statement into simple page:
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
and you'll find Midgard's version in output. If you see a list of
Midgard functions there, than your version supports all tree-related
functions (this feature -- list function names -- and tree management
was added at the same time). Tree management and object moving/copying
exist in Midgard since 1.2.6beta2.

Exactly, because final version of 1.4 doesn't released yet (scheduled
for September).

Yes, in most cases, there could be exclusions, I can't remember exact
variants.
