External file movement creating a new file

Scenario1:

When both packages (source and target packages) are external packages say Ext1 and Ext2 and both are at the same level in browser tree (say under the root node). In this case when we move class from Ext1 to Ext2 in that case, the file won't move but it's reference are created in respective sbsx file. Ext1.sbsx file will remove the reference of moved class and Ext2.sbsx file will have it added the reference of moved class. So no duplicate files are created here. Which is working as expected.

Scenario2:

When both packages(Source and Target) are external packages say Ext1 and Package1, but Package1 is a child of Ext1 package, in this case when we move class from Ext1 to Package1, in this case the class file will remain in folder Ext1 and when user save the model, it creates another file for that class inside Package1 folder. Here duplicate file is getting created.


Every time creating new file is not advisable while we are working on a SCM .
There should be some property or setting to avoid this .
