Seriously?
How many years have to pass so that we can have a sane default behaviour
regarding extended attributes in mv and others?
Do you consider it as a Wishlist bug? Like, if most people don't use extended
attributes now, it is just because there is enough risk to lose their precious
data if they use extended attributes. A significantly useful feature of
filesystems is not used by users just because userspace commands and tools are
not supporting them properly.
As far as they don't support and perserve extended attributes properly, this
feature does not practically exist! Better say there is no user-xattr in
gnu/linux at the moment.

Abraham
