UI Design - What am I moving?

Here's a UI design snafu that I came across today in Vista.

Vista "Move" dialog

Can you tell me what the name of the folder I'm moving is? This isn't a big deal for a single move, but when you have a couple of these windows open and you are wanting to cancel one, how do you know which one to cancel. It would have been nice if the title bar or banner said "Preparing to move 'SomeFolder'".
