Re: Move does not preserve timestamps.

For "real" moves, only the ctime is changed, and AFAIK there's nothing 
practical that can be done about that.

Now that you mention it, I realise that when moving between partitions, between 
filesystems etc (where it must fall back to a copying  process), the mtime and 
atime would not be preserved. I can readily fix that.
