Thank you for clarifying this apparent bug.

I would like to suggest this point for consideration, but I realize the
team will choose to do as it pleases:

While the item itself did not suffer a physical commit, it did change
conceptually, because the parent folder was renamed and therefore its
path changed.

Again, thanks for your response.
