Well, not quite.  They go back to the same folder, but the icon is positioned 
in the first (upper-leftmost) unclaimed icon slot.  This is a pain if you
use icon location as an organizational tool.  Apple, can you have "Put
Away" put the icon back where it was?

And as long as I'm asking for Finder improvements: would you make it
possible for application writers to put sicn's (small icons) into their
BNDL's, and use those sicn's (if supplied) in small icon view and the 
MultiFinder switch icon?  Squashing full-size ICN#'s down to half-size 
usually results in an unrecognizable glob.  This is my biggest MultiFinder 
pet peeve.

Thanks a lot!
