As you've noted, this has to rely on the location tracking information being up-to-date, so if it's not it might miss copying a file to the remote that the remote doesn't currently have but used to. Otherwise, it's fine to use `copy --fast --to --remote` or `copy --not --in remote --to remote`, which is functionally identical.
-The check is not a GET request, it's a HEAD request, to check if the file is present. Does S3 have a way to combine multiple HEAD requests in a single http request? That seems unlikely. Maybe it is enough to reuse an open http connection for multiple GETs? Anything needing a single HEAD request would not fit well into git-annex, but ways to do more caching of open http connections are being considered.
