Add support for vm-move-after-reading

[Ryan Kavanagh (ryanakca)]

Sorry, "bzr revert -n ...." didn't behave as I expected to and I mistakenly included the install-info patch.

[Uday Reddy (reddyuday)]

This is a good idea. Thanks for implementing it!

I didn't find any install-info changes. So, it was ok.

[Uday Reddy (reddyuday)]

Merging it with some additional corrections.
