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.

Hmm. Shouldn't that be done on a by-RCS basis, though? (i.e. implemented
by backends in the `rcs_move` function)

Also, how should ikiwiki react if a page is edited (say, by another user)
before it is moved? Bail, or shrug and proceed?

Could you elaborate on [[commit-internals]]? Can I assume that ikiwiki's
working copy W will always reflect a revision of the master copy M?
(That is, nobody changes W and leaves it uncommitted.) I would guess
probably not; a user probably expects that if he starts editing W it
won't get randomly committed by web user actions. But then looking at
the svn backend, it looks like if I edit foo.mdwn, don't commit, and then
a web user makes different changes, my changes get wiped out. So does
W "belong" to ikiwiki? --Ethan
