Moving Website from Development System to Production System

It's really hard to move the website with the betheme from a development system to a production system with a different url.

I've found severaly issues AFTER changing the site_url in wordpress.

I did a mysqldump, changed old urls to the new url and used the dump.
The theme didn't work any longer so I had to export and import the theme again manually.
Alle the image urls are broken, I had to repair them manually.

The images used in the pages/blog entrys are broken to.
There is a fix but the offered script doesn't work:

so I changed it, now it works:

Why isn't this feature implemented in the theme itself?
Or better, only use relative URLs for ressources like images
or implement an automatic update mechanism. It's not so hard to implement.
