Clients should do it like this:
- send TMove
- get RError back if invalid, then do old style copy and delete, or
move was successful
One possible problem would be servers crashing on invalid messages. That
would mean they are *really* fucked up and would make it impossible to
use that method.
I would not want our code crash remote servers and a special flag on all
clients to fix that.
(We simply can't fix all the servers out there)
