Re: [Issue 962] - remove and move should work for missing files and directories

No. Like I said earlier, there's an URL, and one day there may be a
GUID. The last component of the URL may differ from the directory
name if the directory is a working copy base, or if the directory is
switched.

That doesn't work. Consider 'mv foo zig/foo', the directory name is
unchanged, it's still foo. We don't want to store full path's either,
as that is likely to mean that simply moving a working copy would
break it.
