Plugin to "move" a category

How hard/safe would it be to create a plugin to "move" a category? I.e. create the new category, recategorize all relevant pages and then delete/mark for deletion the old one?

Should be easy, I'm putting it in 1.16.0 (which is starting to be rather big, so some issues there will have to be moved to the following milestone). The deletion part will have to depend on the user rights in an try-except way.

Recent MW versions allow moving the Category page itself: what WM should do is recategorize the pages, and possibly still delete the old category.
