--- Comment #2 from Vladimir Panteleev <dlang-bugzilla@thecybershadow.net> ---
Having the operation be atomic and NOT copy the file contents is a desirable property in many circumstances. As such, this is not a bug.

Adding std.file.move which tries rename and falls back to copy would be a reasonable enhancement, though.
