I don't have much to add to this conversation, but I'm just curious here.

If we do require two separate DFID_NAME record objects in the case of cross
directory rename operations, how does an event listener distinguish the
difference between which is which i.e. moved_{from/to}?  To me, this
implies that the event listener is expected to rely on specific
supplemental information object ordering, which to my knowledge is a
contract that we had always wanted to avoid drawing.
