Is moving aliases possible atomically?

This is worth considering. The [un]alias is atomic in the end, but the selection criteria would be exceptionally tricky to implement at the command-line.

How do you select the indices to remove, and add from the alias? It would almost necessitate a 2 level index selection: one for the add, and one for the remove. This could make for a fairly long command-line.

Thanks for the response. I think this is critical for me and probably all who have relative fast feeding.

Maybe you allow more actions per command or you implement state and add an additional 'commit' command (?)

This will be available in the next major release. It will be delayed because that will be the release that allows for a configuration file, which this level of abstraction surely requires.

This should be addressed by #595 and #596 with Curator 4.0 imminent.
