Integrated Updating of Drive/Media/Volume Id's

Yes I know that a script is available to do this, but it is very apparent that this functionality should be integrated into MM.

Alternatively, it would be great if the script could be installed by default, however I still prefer a native solution.

Ideally the functionality should include the ability to:

- update the database selected/all tracks in any combination to and from
-- physical drive to another physical drive
-- physical drive to UNC network share (\\computer\share)
-- physical drive to Mapped network drive (net Z:\path)
-- network share/drive to network share/drive

- allow user option to copy or move physical files from old drive to new, while automatically updating database. I realize auto-organize can be used to move files, however no option to copy files is currently available (other than send to > copy, which is not exactly intutive nor useful for copying an entire library)
- include option to include non-music files accompanied with music files to be transferred

Updating the database only would be used after a user migrated the files externally to MM, while the other options would be for MM to migrate the files with MM itself.

I agree, this would be a VERY useful function.
