Bug ID: 451488
Summary: When changing default paths, ask whether to move the
physical directory
Product: systemsettings
Version: 5.24.3
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When I change the location of a default path in System
settings→Applications→Locations, I usually do this because I want to rename the
actual directory. Another use case is the default paths having been created
with English names before I could switch the workspace to my local language.
So if the old location exists, then a dialog would be nice:
„Shall the existing directory be moved to the new location?“
And if the new location already exists, just confirm whether to move the
contents into it, especially if the destination is not empty. Maybe even use
the same dialog for that as when moving something in Dolphin, so we get a nice
progress indicator for longer operations.
