DirectoryInfo Move (UNC Compatible)

Ever wanted to move a whole directory, but .NET would not allow it? The only possible way was to create directory, at target, and copy each files to the new folder and delete the old one.

To make matter worse, you can't copy or move directory to a shared location, with a given UNC path.

The following code is an extension method to allow the built-in .NET DirectoryInfo class, to move an entire folder, even across servers.
