is that really true though? couldn't the dao detect if the item had
been moved (eg its parent item is no longer the same)? it could also
detect if the item had been deleted, right? there's a small number of
states the item could be in that would require logic other than
"overwrite the change that was just made".

sure, but i'd rather do everything related to this bug at once. the
412 isn't really a high priority, i don't think.
