I agree too. Maybe the distinction should be between "local disk" and
"remote and removable filesystems" (NFS, SMB, ftp, DAV etc) - copy to
those, move to local disk by default? The only problem with moving
indeed is that if you move to a remote disk you might want to keep a
copy, so perhaps default to "copy" for that reason on remote
filesystems.
