Bug Description

The definition of the terms "remove" and "delete" within Exaile often isn't clear and sometimes even swapped.

AFAIS "removing" would mean actions based on Exaile's GUI/database whereas "deleting" would involve real filesystem access. The latter is a more sensitive action and requires more user confirmation than the former.

Please make sure to have a look at this in 0.3-devel. (Frontend- as well as code-wise.)

The only place you can "delete" stuff is in the collection and devices pane. There is no "remove" action there so one cannot confuse them. Other places only have a "remove" action.
