Robust Transfer dialog on Move operation

I noticed that when moving files to the same drive, it doesn't show the Robust Transfer dialog. I figured you assumed that there is no need for it when moving files to the same drive, but consider moving files from or to an encrypted folder, which is a lengthy process even on the same drive.

I hadn't noticed that before.
(thinking it was just too fast to notice, which is still the case moving encrypted items into an unencrypted folder because it really is a move, and they maintain their encryption).
But you are right, there is noticeably no dialog/progress box when moving unencrypted items INTO an encrypted folder -- which took several minutes for my test case of 700 files totalling 290MB.
I hope nikos will correct this omission (& I also hope he will colorize encrypted items, as you requested in a parallel post.)

and i was wondering what i was going to do with myself this weekend

however, if time is just the issue, robust transfer isn't going to make anything any easier
