Hi folks,

I've been aware of this problem for a while. If one attempts to move
tagged files from one directory to another, and those directories have a
different owner, the system balks with:

	Destination has different owner! Request denied.

For instance, just today I was trying to move files from:

       Full name:  /csuite/info/Culture
   Name of owner:  http
      Group name:  fn-edit

To

       Full name:  /csuite/info/Culture/Richards
   Name of owner:  aa051
      Group name:  fn-edit

And it was a no-go.

I can move the files one at a time from directory to directory with no
problem, but as soon as I tag a file the system protests seeing that
http =/= aa051. I doesn't matter whether it is 1 or >1 files.

Can this problem be easily remedied? It's not life and death but it can be
a bit of a pain if one has to move a large number of files.

Cheers!

Chris
