But if I'm not mistaken, they involve refiling all the marked items to the same destination. That hasn't been my workflow at all. 

This is a frustrating change. I guess my option now is to jump to the item in question, refile it, then jump back. But given that in my current workflow I  refile scores of items during my daily prep... Ugh. I'm sure there was a good reason for the change, but it just doesn't suit how I've come to use Org-mode.

Anyway, if there are any other ideas out there other than waiting for the roundtrip of the rebuild or jumping back and forth to the source files, I would be interested in hearing them!

TIA!
