It's uncontroversial to move images individually, people do it all the 
time. Mass moves seem like less of a good idea, unless you had a group 
that had already all been vetted for source and license. Commons doesn't 
have the resources to clean up after a move of, say, 100K images of 
which 5% are copyvios.
