. .. mv & cd oddities

I notice that ls .* doesn't show "." or ".."
Bug or feature?

Also, there's a bug (or undesirable restriction) in mv:
mkdir bar
touch foo
mv foo bar
It's gone!
(mv foo bar/foo would have worked)
Is this known? Any plan to fix it? Or should I?

Odd behavior with cd:
$ pwd
/vsta/src/bin
$ ls tmp
tmp: no entry
$ cd tmp # expected to fail but didn't
$ pwd
/vsta/root/tmp
Bug or feature?
