It was done in this way because moving subtrees can cause some
strange visibility artifacts, and the easiest way to fix this was
to switch to children view in this subtree.

However, I have changed this now, originally in response to
questions by Samuel about performance of subtree-move operations
in trees with very many siblings.

So I believe this issue is fixed now, let me know if not.
