--------------------------------------

Just confirmed the same thing is still happening using vfs 2.0.

> Below is a simple program which creates a vfs using a RamFileProvider. Note i have not verified if this works on other providers which are backed by a real filesystem. Im guessing moving on those will work because it would be a disaster for the hose os and it makes no sense that vfs does the moving of individual files.
> Note refreshing the FileObject by fetching them again with resolveFile makes no difference, the "moved" directory remains empty but the file/dir are avaiable by using their absolute paths.
