ViewFS rename within namespace

Hello Devs,

We see that ViewFileSystem does not allow rename across mount points even
if it is in same namespace. I see the code in ViewFileSystem.java which has
been commented out which would have allowed rename across mount points but
within same namespace.
Can anyone explain history behind this? Any specific reason why this is
disabled as of today?
