Keyboard shortcut to switch app to different space on OS X Lion?

Question

I am wondering if there is a way to use the keyboard to move the current app (or at least the current window) to a new space in Lion. Currently the only method I know of is to go to Mission Control and drag the app to the new space.

The only applications I've found that support it are SizeUp and Spacey. I couldn't get Spacey to work on 10.8, but SizeUp still works for me.

I know this question is a bit old at this point, but it still comes up in Google search results right up at the top.

Better Touch Tool:

It lets you move windows to different monitors, desktops, resize, etc. all with custom gestures or keyboard shortcuts. It's robust, supports the Apple trackpad, magic mouse, keyboard, regular mouse, Leap motion device and more.
