Whether this is to be solved in Metacity or Nautilus, the matter of the fact is, that for me, moving/copying files from one place to another is difficult and annoying with GNOME. Same as comparing two directories. I personally find the splitting feature a valid solution, same as the command in the right-click menu "move/copy to".
