Allow Edit-Mask Left & Right on MOVE EDITED

MOVE EDITED only permits 1 Edit-Mask on the left or right hand side.

It would save many lines-of-code if 2 Edit-Masks were allowed, left AND right.

Effectively, MOVE EDITED is an Alpha Move:
one side is alpha & the Edit-Mask reduces the other side to alpha.

So a 2-sided MOVE EDITED would logically be an alpha move too.
Use Case Saves lines-of-code & obviates unnecessary intermediate result-fields
