Pascal,
You are right, I agree that safety is very important, butthe option should be on the user side.
I should the one deciding on which side I wantto go.

Maybe when the user selects the option of deleting after import, a warning could pop-up alerting and asking for confirmation.

After upgrading to dt 1.2.3, from Pascal PPA, I noticed that the
dialogue box to import from camera, in the settings tab, misses the
option to delete after importing the files.

Without this option, I have to perform the additional task of delete the
imported images from the memory card. Before it was all done after import.

Is there any particular reason for this or is just something I'm not
seeing correctly?
Yes, safety. It is not recommended to delete the images from the
camera/card just after importing. If the hard drive crash? My work-flow
(and the one I recommend) is to import, store the card somewhere, use
another card if possible. When the time arrive to re-use the card just
format it from the camera. At this stage the image are probably already
stored into a safer place than the computer hard drive.
