From Apple documentation for NSFileManager movePath:
"If source is a file, the method creates a file at destination that
holds the exact contents of the original file and then deletes the
original file. If source is a directory, movePath:toPath:handler:
creates a new directory at destination and recursively populates it with
duplicates of the files and directories contained in source."
This is really heavyweight - I don't want all that disk activity just to
change a file entity name, plus this needs to work if the volume is
practically full.
