With this email, I would like to suggest a feature for the mv command. I 
believe this command should contain a safeguard feature which will deny 
renaming a directory that contains files which are currently opened by the user.

While I see the issue, I think it's probably outside the remit
of mv to make such checks.


With no further comments in 5 years, I'm closing this item.
