As I've described in my previous email, you can think of any entry in the
MuseumIndex+ location hierarchy as a container and can simply drag and drop it
to a new position in the hierarchy to represent moving that container. When
you do so you'll immediately update the displayed location of all the objects
in that "container" as well as moving all the sub-locations that might live
within that "container" (for example you could imagine physically moving a
case that contained a number of boxes).
