I think we should expect/aim to just have some "mass repost script" that can take an extract of a community's content and just "repost" it on a new community.
Basically, a script that would "replay" a community in one go. I don't know if you could create "new comments" that immitates perfectly the original commenter but that would be the idea for a quick and very dirty "community mover script".
A bit like in GIT when you want to change/remove a specific commit, you can only replay/rebuild everything from the start by creating new everything posts/comments.
Or maybe that's a terrible plan ;)
