I have no idea about the first question, but the "workaround" for this is just to go into the folder you want to get rid of, 
select all (which may mean you have to turn on aggregate commands) and save all of the messages into the OTHER folder..

then after confirming everything is there (just to be paranoid), delete the original folder.

and this will end up with the moved folder's messages all 'after' the original folder's messages.. so if you want to have them all in arrival order, sort the folder by arrival order, 
select all and I think you can then save them all to the same folder (which will duplicate them, but they'll be in the arrival order for example, regardless of which mailbox they originally came from).

then expunge, which will delete the 'extra' copy of each message.
