Just my 2 cents. I also place the files myself in the 'right' directory but it would be nice if there was no distinction between the import from a camera and a 'normal' file system (a USB stick for example). At least one should have the choice to copy them into the directory that they use for DT to place the images. I come from RAWTherapee where this option exists. It also gives you the option to delete them from the source but I can understand that the developers do not want to take that responsibility.

If I were to prioritize darktable for either image editing or digital asset management, I'd choose image editing and manually place files in locations where they make sense to me to be.  It the developers could do both, great, but keep the priority on image editing.  One thing that really irritates me about Lightroom is that Adobe pretty much dictates how one should manage their own files.  I'll choose my own structure and process for digital asset management and to hell with Adobe.
