Shortlink from Queue roll breaks after item is removed #456

  1. From my Queue, I used the shortlink hotkey "L" to generate an awesm link: http://shl.by/oc3 so I could share on Twitter later
  2. Removed the video from my Queue
  3. When this link is clicked by a GT-enabled user, they get redirected to http://shelby.tv/roll/4f901bd8b415cc466a0008f0/Watch-Later and receive the notification, "Sorry, the video you were looking for doesn't exist in this roll."

3.1 Non-GT users land on the video gate, no apparent errors are encountered.

It was my assumption when generating the link that it would direct to that particular video, and not the instance of that video within my Queue.

This would also be very frustrating to encounter using the coming shortlink button.

@spinosa What's the deal - are shortlinks just an internal mechanism for now or something that we expect our users to toss around manually for sharing? If the latter, I think this goes to P(1). Is this somehow easier to handle now that we don't actually delete frames?

should be able to handle b/c Frames aren't actually deleted (roll_id is moved to deleted_from_roll_id) but really this is a rare situation and so lower priority moving to backlog
