I have put online a little JavaScript tool which allows (mass-) moving
of images between categories within commons through point-and-click
(no use of keyboard necessary;-)
I tested this on my local MediaWiki installation, where it worked
fine, but didn't stress-test it on commons yet. It can't damage
anything on commons, but it might not work under certain conditions at
the moment.
That said:

Awaiting critique and bug reports :)
Bug Report #1 from your friendly script tester :p
After clicking "move" to move something, the preview was fine and the edit was right; but when clicking "save" I got an edit conflict, with nobody. You can see my screenshot here:
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Editor_at_Large%27s_test_image.png . This happened twice; both of the attempts I made on my first try. I just tested it again and it happened another time. Thinking it may be the character (Pecs to Pécs) I attempted it another time: moving Category:Globular Clusters to Category:Globular clusters. Still didn't work. Not sure why I would be getting edit conflicts while using it :/
Other than that, congrats on another lovely script, Magnus :)
