I can confirm this for Dart/Flutter projects. It has always done this. It is not new.

An interesting detail is that the result varies:

1. If the file being moved, is referenced elsewhere with a relative path name in it's import, then the rename for the move works correctly!

2. If the file being moved, is referenced elsewhere with a package import, like in the above example, then the rename fails and it gets a weird file reference like above. It should in that case keep the packages reference with the path corrected.

This leads to the following issues,

• Hot Reload doesn't work for the code in that particular file.
• If the code is opened on a different PC it'll show an error as the path is relative to the system.
