That would do it.

Which has the obvious problem when there are no tagged messages. :)

I've wrestled with the same problem.

Yes! Here's the key observation that allows us to solve the problem: 
tagged messages will get moved, even if they're collapsed, but 
collapsed messages don't get tagged.

So, the workaround is all about ordering; you have to work in the 
following order:

     1. make sure everything is uncollapsed
     2. tag the messages you want
     3. collapse things
     4. use tag-prefix-cond to operate on the tagged messages

Don't worry, it took me a while to figure that one out too.
