If this mod is installed, you can enter or paste an existing topic URL instead of a new topic title in the "Split Topic Control Panel". If the URL is valid, the selected posts are merged with the given topic then, "Split from selected post" also works. Moreover, if no posts are selected, all posts are moved to the destination topic one and the original topic is removed.

Note that the destination topic starting date must be older than the date of any post to move to there. However, the program checks this point and prints an error in this case.
I decided not to add an additional control for this function, as the function is normally seldomly used and so no templates must be changed for this little mod.
This mod is based on the mod by Alan Sinsheimer, but the original mod does not allow to move complete topics, requires to change the template and makes more changes to modcp.php. In some way, this mod also replaces the mod. However, this mod is not "better" than the original ones, I just developed it to fit my needs and posted it here as it may be useful for someone elses.
I have already tested the mod on some forums, but I cannot offer an testing account with moderator rights
