Excellent! It's not a kludge at all and I've written about the 
exact procedure you did on my Power Pine page in this section:

 Using Aggregate Operations to Select and Move Messages in a 
Mailbox
 <http://www.ii.com/internet/messaging/pine/pc/#mvAggregate>


Here's a tip: If you are moving messages to a mailbox that 
already exists, you can save yourself typing the target mailbox 
name (and possibly MIStyping it), by setting this Pine feature:

  [X]  enable-tab-completion

Then after you type '; A A S ^N' (Select > All > Apply > Save > 
NextCollection), just type the first couple characters of the 
the target mailbox's name and press TAB to complete the name.

Hope that's useful!
