Somewhat unexpected behavior(s) in my view.
1) When changing some text that was in one page-case in both the title and the same (file)page content (which was a file-redirect page). The page was moved first, but the content change was skipped. (presuming the initial page move prevented the content change. Although I figure point 2 could also have something to do with it)
2) In the same replacement job(non scripted) I'm pretty sure I disable the "Save the old titles as redirects to the new titles" option. But I did end up with having old-title-redirects on all moved (file)pages. ... Which in this case, if the content change in point 1 would have succeeded would have created a redirection loop.
All in all thing worked out ok (only a few pages had to be changed), but it also leaves some concerns when it comes to doing potential complicated/troublesome changes on large sets of pages.
?) Are there some know problems, or undocumented behaviors, with the "Save the old titles as redirects to the new titles" option ?
