Future Optimization For Moving Files?

I just moved a large subfolder (~100GB) of one of my sync folders and was surprised that sync wasn't faster.  The second instance of BTSync moved its copy of the files from the old location to .SyncArchive and then started slowly syncing them to the new location as if they were freshly created.

 

Can file moves be optimized in the future?  I thought that each node would know the hashes of all of its files, and would be able to link or copy to the new location without a network transfer.
