Had a look as well. Xfer only seems to get triggered when when using
.tag rename old new destination
and "old" and "new" match.
If both folders reside on the same box (same imapd, just different
partitions) a
.tag rename old new partitionname
should work.

Yes, you are overlooking something (though feel free to write a patch
anyway ;) ).
The Imap protocol was specified by an insane monkey on lsd using
multiple addresses from around the world and laughing his ass of every
time someone tries to understand this protocol.
E.g. from RFC 4466
