That would be fine with me as well. Just to be clear, this means the binding spec would state: A server that supports BIND MUST implement MOVE/DELETE with rebind/unbind semantics. We will also define a parameter to MOVE/DELETE that allows a user to explicitly request the "best effort" style processing (that is OK because the user is explicitly stating that trashing multiple binding semantics is what they want).

On the other hand, a system that allows a "weak" MOVE if and only if there aren't any multiple bindings seems very weird to me. So maybe we should consider make MOVE "strong" by default, and only allow the old COPY/DELETE semantics upon specific request?
