TASK DESCRIPTION
This function is far from perfect. It produces incomplete merges and leaves semi-empty useless items behind, which actually are not so easy to find. AFAIK, currently @Pasleim's bot watches the recently performed merges and finishes incomplete merge actions. But this is not a solution for this problem.
The function responsible for merging must be improved to perform complete merges: after the merge action, the source item must be checked and if it's not redirect, then do clear it and redirect to the target item. This should be at least optional, if not mandatory.
