Consider the scenario when two panels are opened, one as document viewer and another one as commander, as in illustration below:

Many times I want to move entire document (opened as viewer, the left panel) to the target folder (opened as commander, right panel). This may be the case when extracting different pages from a document, the result of which is that "only correct pages" are left as part of the document - however document is in "inappropriate folder". Just to be consistent with rest of the operation (which was basically right click -> extract, right click extract), sort of "right click -> move" would be great!

Currently, the only option is to "close document" by going one level up, and move entire document from commander to commander (right click menu on the left panel, then click move).

It would be awesome to have option to move entire document from within document viewer. In above illustration, it would be great to have contextual menu option "move" similar to command's "move".
