Description computergeoffrey 2015-01-12 18:01:13 UTC 
Please add an option to remove "Obsolete files" automatically from the library after a set amount of time.

When implementing this, take into account:
* Network file systems might be unreachable for quite some time. If other files on the network drive are unreachable too, most likely the network drive is offline and the files should not be removed from the Shotwell library
* When there is only a percentage of the files missing (be it on a local drive or a network share), the obsolete files from the library should be removed because they were deleted intentionally
