I think we all agree... and in case we don't:

CVS's support of file and directory restructuring is poor but can be
worked around.  Deciding not rename files and directories when they need
it would be a much bigger loss than not having a coherent history would
be.  I would prefer that we pretend it's not a problem, NOT freeze file
names and directories, and work around it.
