This is my first cut at a feature like that requested in [[todo/Moving_Pages]]. In case it gets mangled you can find it on [my site](http://www.betacantrips.com//attic/move.patch).

A bunch of obvious shortcomings exist: 

* I'm not sure all the untaints are safe.
* No precautions whatsoever are made to protect against race conditions or failures
  in the rcs\_move function.
* movepage.tmpl doesn't exist yet.
* Some code is duplicated between cgi\_movepage and cgi\_editpage, as well
  as rcs\_commit and rcs\_move.
* The user interface is pretty lame -- there's no handy select list full 
  of possible places to move it or anything.
* I don't think I implemented cancelling.
* from is redundant with page.
* I don't think I called the right hook functions.
* No redirect pages like those mentioned on [[todo/Moving_Pages]] exist yet, 
  so none are created.
* It's not possible to get there through the actions listed on the wiki page.
  Instead you can select "Edit" and then change "edit" to "move" in the 
  location bar.

Anyhow, here's the patch, for whatever good it does.

> Looks like a good start, although I agree about many of the points above,
> and also feel that something needs to be done about rcses that don't
> implement a move operation -- falling back to an add and delete.
