[Developers] Moving types to a different domain

There's been some requests recently for a feature to move types to  
different domains within your own namespace, so its been pushed up a  
bit in the priority list (at least on the design side.)  I'm working  
on the interaction for this, so I have a few questions for those of  
you who have requested the feature:

1.  Do you find yourself needing to move a bunch of types at once, or  
is it usually just a couple (1-2)?
2.  If you are moving a a bunch of them, are they usually in one place  
and you want to move them to another?

The most common use case I can see is that you'd create a few types in  
your default domain, and then realize that a bunch of them should be  
grouped together in a different domain.  Is this the case?  Or do you  
find that you've started with a domain or two and then realize that  
they should be organized differently, so you need to switch 'em all  
around?

Thanks for your input!  Just want to make sure I understand the need  
before designing the feature for it.
