File managers are for that. Clementine is not one.
Maybe it is mine bad workflow, but I'm used to add all new music to my playlist and delete songs I don't like while they are playing. This could save some time (maximize player, ctrl+j, right click, delete from disk).
If that's the case @Tatsh, why does Clementine gives us the option to "Delete from Disk"? All we want is an way to add an shortcut to this action that already exists, we're not asking that much.
In my case I have a large amount of music and a not so large hard drive and I'd love to quickly delete the musics I don't like so I can move hundreds of music to my cellphone and tablet instead of thousands of music (and I can also have more free space in my computer).
The only reasons i use clementine are because 1) it can delete files and 2) it can move them using an expressions. Those are basic functionalities to me. My library is pretty big (100gib) it would be a total hassle to use a different soft to delete/move songs. What's the meaning to have a "library" if you can't organize it? Also, it is advertised as such. https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/raring/clementine/
Sorry, I think this is a very bad idea. Clementine should be a safe application. It should not be possible to accidentally, permanently delete data with Clementine.
It's bad enough that the menu item exists--at least it has a confirmation prompt. But to have a keyboard shortcut? So if a user accidentally hits the wrong key, or if a small child or a pet mashes the keyboard, his music would be permanently deleted?
Sorry, I just think that's a really bad idea.
Now if the "delete from disk" action were replaced with a "Send to Trash" action, that would be completely different, because you can always go to your trash and restore the files.
why not send it to trash then? the "rm" command exists.

What do you mean? rm
does not send to trash. And Clementine does not have support for trash at the moment. I wish it did, but AFAIK, Qt doesn't provide much help for cross-platform trash, and no one seems eager to dive into that abyss.
I think just doing XDG trash wouldn't be a big problem, but then you'd have an inconsistency across platforms...
thats what i meant. rm doesnt handle trash. but rm is known to be dangerous.i think xdg trash would be a better option than nothing.

Issue #1701 is relevant.
+1 for delete from disk hotkey if a user sets up the key he takes full responsibility for his actions, right? sudo isn't that safe either, yet you do have it available
And sudo requires typing your password.
well i think that if you dont need the feature just dont use it. that doesnt make it less valuable for the people that actually finds it useful.
@jerobarraco I don't want to have to worry about accidentally clicking the wrong menu item, or a cat walking across the keyboard, and permanently deleting my music files. Just delete your files to the trash and empty them when you feel like it. Thanks.
Title says it all. Thanks
