What's wrong with INVALID_FILE_ATTRIBUTES?

Fully agree with Thomas.. That is wrong.. Attributes are not handles.

Further, this replicates the unacceptable behavior of the Windows shell,
whereby an entire list of files is dropped when just one fail.
I've argued, some years ago, that such lists should be continued,
ideally adding failed files to a "failed" list to be presented to the user.
You can *not* make any valid assumption of whether other files in the list
will fail just because one of them doesn't exist, or cant be moved because
it's locked, or whatever.

That you are currently writing on this code gives you a good opportunity
to make our shell better than Microsoft's in this regard.
