This is something we've been made aware of before and would like to correct
it.  Here's the ticket: http://trac.yorba.org/ticket/2729

(Actually, it was you that mentioned it to us Stuart, just last night.  No
wonder I thought I'd heard this so recently!  Another beer, please.)

Shotwell has a shunt inside the import code: if a file is already in the
Pictures directory, it will never be copied, even if the user selects Copy
instead of Link.  So, no worries.

It's not totally straightforward to detect this situation and avoid the
confusion, but we should at least attempt to.
