Wishlist reqquests: MoveDownFill

I use MoveDownFill after FastFill (as a quicker solution than SortBy, because FastFill gives me problems on nearly-full disks) . But MoveDownFill seems to move most files twice; Once upward, then downward to its final position. That happens for each file in turn, probably because the gap is smaller than the file. I wish for something better, faster, maybe slightly less perfect, without the problems of FastFill.
Maybe have a MoveDownFill parameter of ignore gaps less than a certain size?

Thanks for sharing your idea, I appreciate it. Perhaps I will add something like that in the future, although I think it will not be used much.

I noticed this behavior, too. It is very anoying when a big file must be aligned just because there is a gap of at least one cluster. It moves the whole file at the next gap with is large enough and then move it back to the position. This is double of work for the HDD and tends to abrasion.
