So what do we agree on?
When using a live query, chances are very high that you want to monitor
the file in question, anyway. Since the entry didn't change wrt the
query, I would find it cleaner to keep that separated.
Introducing B_ENTRY_MOVED would also require userland apps to support
this (unlike my previous B_ENTRY_REMOVED/B_ENTRY_ADDED hack).
