I think the main problem here is that most computer users don't unmount
their memory card properly when used in the computer. This will be no
problem when they only read from the card, but if they write to the card
the filesystem will be with errors if they remove the card before the
changes are commited. These errors will be solved when the memory card
are formatted in the camera.
The procedure above is hard to communicate to the users. Then it's
easier to tell the users to always format their memory card in the
camera. That is the reason why it's recommended in my opinion.
I have never experienced faulty memory card even if I don't format the
card on the camera.
For Dt the question should be. Should the program be an "all in one stop
solution" like the Adobe product
Lightroom? If so, I recommend that you also implement a option to rename
og delete files from the
memory card if the users want it. Personally I use Digikam before Dt so
I don't need it, but I'm not "all
users". :)

That's fully right : it's widely recommanded in every litterature to
only format a card in camera, and to do it as often than necessary. So
deleting files on the computer side is not useful nor recommanded.
