Sigh. I *do* know that and how it is possible to write an application
which is resistent against moving. What I am stressing out is that
there is any number of application which *do not* do that, and a vast
majority of them never will. Heck, would you forbid using of argv[0],
too? Or would you advocate the BSD layer dynamically changes process
info if the process executable is moved? And so forth, and so on.

There are much more important things for Apple programmers to put
effort to than such a nonsense as trying to support moving of running
apps, the more so since it is (but for a very small number of apps
specially written with that in mind) quite impossible.
