I could begin to address your question, but discussion of Ev2 move design is such a big and tricky topic (witness the several hours on IRC today) that I would humbly request you start a thread with 'Ev2' in the subject line so we can all track it. Your question here doesn't seem to be one that merely concerns r1235773 and can be answered with 'yes' and a follow-up commit.

It was intended to be:
move(A, B); move(B/C, D)
or
move(A/C, D); move(A, B)
The two are the same if you assume current-state. The second also
works if you assume initial-state.
