It seems from using the "Arrange into folders" option that when you compare to before the bulk rename, the diff doesn't pick up on the rename -- it tells me that 30+ files were deleted and added. It did notice that the images were renamed. This may be intentional, but still...

It stops you from seeing whether any changes were made within the files, if renames act like remove+add. Is there some way you can get them to show up with a message saying it was renamed, while still showing any possible changes to the file?
