I want to give my feedbacks as a user to this topic, even if I agree DT
developers should not waste too much time to rewrite file manager
functionalities. I also understand the film roll is a concept who comes
from film photography is familiar with. But as a new user of DT who never
used films I find the concept just odd. I never managed to get into it,
because if in a film roll you had 24-36 pictures, on a SIM you have much
more and very unlikely all related to the same session. My suggestion would
be to remove it completely and add just a tag that relates all picture
imported in one shot. I would also like to have a better way to re-link a
photo when the link is broken. It can be as simple as when DT cannot find
the file gives the user the possibility to navigate the file system and
pick it up.
my two cents
