    1. Get the file's metadata object using FileBase.get(filename,
    FileBase.DETAIL.EXTENDED)

    2. Remove the file from the FileBase using
    FileBase.remove(filename, false)

    3. Move the file to the other filebase directory, open that
    filebase, and use FileBase.Add(meta-data object)

    I think that would be useful to have. As I've been working on my file
    lister, I've implemented a sysop action to move a file from one
    FileBase to another and have implemented it as above for now.

    Does that action work as expected (save for those 3 'stats' properties)?

    Yes, it does appear to work as expected.
