If files are locked calibre will normally thrown an error.

The contents of the old and now library folders are not symlinked, hardlinked or otherwise exotically associated.

I'll have to look up out how to get the file Object-Ids (fsutil I think) - if they're being copied they will be different, if they're being moved they'll be the same.
