Description Tim Waugh 2007-07-16 14:34:36 UTC 
Description of problem:
When removing a track from a playlist by right-clicking on it, there are two
relevant menu entries:

* Remove
* Move to Wastebasket

It is not clear what the difference is.  In fact, 'Move to Wastebasket' will
actually move the *original track* from your Library(!!), whereas Remove will do
the right thing and remove the track from the playlist (but keep the Library as-is).

This is very confusing, and will lead to people unintentionally losing tracks
from their Library.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rhythmbox-0.9.8-2.fc6

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create a playlist
2.Add a track to the playlist from the Library
3.Right-click on the track in the playlist
4.Try to decide what the opposite of step 2 is from the menu entries given

Actual results:
'Move to Wastebasket' is selected, no confirmation required, track is removed
from Library.

Expected results:
F-Spot is an example of an application that does this sort of thing much better.

Could you elaborate on the "F-Spot is an example of an application that does
this sort of thing much better."?

Should it be "Move file to Wastebasket"? Any other hints?
Comment 2 Tim Waugh 2007-08-24 14:37:27 UTC 
The F-Spot menu items read:

Remove From Catalogue
Delete From Drive
