image files are not being physically deleted with using "Move to trash" option (when imported with "in place" option) #725

What Happened?

When you import photos to your library with using "in place" option, and then you delete those, they're not being physically deleted from HDD, which makes it impossible to use "Photos" app for any kind of housekeeping, like removing bad / out-of-focus photos

Steps to Reproduce

1) import some photos to your library with using "Import in place" option (I just don't like photos to be stored twice on my hdd) 2) navigate to those photos in the library, right-click, "Move to trash" 3) then go check the original file is still lying around in a file system as nothing has happened

Expected Behavior

Files should have been deleted

OS Version

6.x (Odin)

Software Version

Latest release (I have run all updates)

Closing it myself. Deleted photos appear to get into "Photo" "Trash" bin first, where they need to be deleted from manually
