I don't think it's appropriate for mv to do this expensive/error prone path manipulation for each file being copied across devices. IMHO this is more appropriate for the kernel, which has a more holistic view of the mount space.
Plus, it's not like mv is the only app with this efficiency issue. Why should all those apps be modified to work around the inefficiency when the kernel can do the job right once and for all?
