It works for the simple cases, which are renaming within a directory (a 
bit quirky but does so). Whatever works in the future will always be 
backward compatible (it'll have to be, as the cvsnt repository has a few 
renamed files in it now).

The easiest way to rename is still to do an add/remove pair, which is 
the old-fashioned way and always works.
